I like using sunflower seeds instead of pine nuts to save a little bit of money yet still achieve a similar taste and texture.
Ingredients
1 cup fresh basil
⅓ cup of sunflower seeds
½ block of soft tofu
¼ cup of nutritional yeast
3-4 cloves of garlic (peeled)
1 tablespoon of lemon juice
¼-½ cup of water
1 teaspoon of salt
Pepper to taste
Pinch of red pepper flakes
Preparation
Add all the ingredients (start with ¼ cup of water, add more to achieve desired consistency) to a blender and blend until smooth. Serve with whole wheat pasta.
