Vegan Parsley & Walnut Pesto

Pesto are prepared with herbs,cheese,olive oil and nuts, for a change i prepared this wonderful looking parsley walnut pesto as vegan version, yep i didnt used cheese in this green flavourful pesto..I used breadcrumbs,walnuts,olive oil,garlic and parsley leaves for making this quick and flavourful pesto..People whoever says no to cheese can try this vegan version of pesto, an excellent aromatic pesto to enjoy without any guilt..You can serve very well this vegan pesto with pastas,sliced boiled potatoes, toasted bread slices,tomatoes or else for making pizzas..This vegan pesto can stay prefect in refrigerator for a week or else you can freeze them very well for later use...A kid's friendly spread, yep my teddies couldnt stop themselves having this delicious pesto with some toasted bread slices..


2cups Parsley leaves (washed & chopped)
1/2cup Wanuts (chopped)
1/4cup Olive oil
1tbsp Lemon juice
Salt
3nos Garlic cloves
1/4cup Bread crumbs

Take the chopped parsley leaves,chopped walnuts,lemon juice,garlic cloves and bread crumbs in a mixie with enough salt and grind as a smooth paste..Serve with toasted bread slices,pastas or along with boiled potatoes..
