Here’s a little known secret: pesto can be made with a plethora of different ingredients. As long as you have something green and leafy, a nut, a cheese, and a cooking oil you can mix and match the variety of each thing. This version replaces the traditional basil and pine nuts with arugula and walnuts. It’s a cheaper, more plentiful option, and it has a fresh, peppery flavor.
Ingredients:
2 cups packed fresh arugula leaves, rinsed and dried
1/4 cup roughly chopped walnuts
4 medium garlic cloves
1/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 cup finely grated fresh Parmesan cheese
2 teaspoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
