Green Pea Pesto

April 3, 2020

When she found a pesto recipe with frozen peas she hesitated, but decided to give it a try. “I would have never thought peas would be so delicious”, said Tara. Then when she found Garlicky Green Parma! Tara realized that it contained many of the same ingredients she was using in her pesto, so she substituted Garlicky Green Parma! for some of her ingredients and this is what she came up with, she loved it and so do we. You can also go to her post here.

If you want to make it oil free, try using a juicy, organic tomato instead of the olive oil.

Ingredients

1 1/2 cups frozen green peas, thawed
1/3 cup fresh basil
Juice of one lemon, about 2 TBL
1/3 cup Garlicky Green Parma!
4 TBL olive oil or tomato

Directions

Add all ingredients to a food processor or high-speed blender. Start with one TBL water and add more if needed. Blend until thick but creamy pesto is achieved.

Eat pesto with pasta or on pizza. Enjoy!

  Love Parma! We use it in soups, on pasta & roasted veggies.  The only problem is running out of it.  Getting ready to order more!!

  I simply love bacon Parma!!  I use on eggs, in macaroni salad, and on microwaved ears of buttered corn (my fav!).  I am on a strict low sodium diet, as well as being allergic to meat from hooved animals so Parma! is perfect for me without any sacrifice of bacon taste.  I just got some of the Jalapeno bacon and it's delish too!  I'll be a repeat customer without doubt.

  This product is approved by my whole family including my 3, 6 and 7 year old.  We love to put in on popcorn or on top of noodles.  Clean, healthy ingredients.  Perfect for anyone or those who want to be WFPB, no oil or added sugar!

  Parma, plant-based parmesan, is one of the best foods I've found. I tried the Better Than Bacon flavor because I did not want cheese that triples your risk of breast cancer. Parma tasted good and it's nutritional yeast is packed with vitamins, minerals and all essential amino acids making it a complete protein like animal products.

A study found people eating nutritional yeast were 25% less likely to catch colds than those not eating it. Other studies linked nutritional yeast to better moods and less fatigue after exercising. And, Parma offers other great for you ingredients, too.

  Hands down my go to "sprinkle it on everything" condiment! The OG flavor is super tasty but the jalapeno bacon is also amazing- It's especially good on my roasted sweet potato & eggs breakfast!

  Bacon freak comes clean:  I used to be a total baconhead, then I went vegan. I thought I was doomed to a life without bacon, but I was willing to do it for my animal friends. Then I discovered Better Than Bacon. Hoohah! I slather this stuff on everything and buy the big cans, five or ten at time. Jonesing for your clean bacon fix? Grab a can and splarge it across whatever you're having. With Better Than Bacon, you are Good. For. Life.
