Dandelion Green Pesto
Who says pizza isn’t healthy? I’m good at stepping outside the lines of tradition, and that’s what gives my pizza a healthy twist.
Pizza should be topped with whatever you like, but here’s some of my favorite combinations (minus the cheese or nutritional yeast – my dairy free ‘cheese’) :
- sun-dried tomatoes + spinach + mushrooms + onions
- fresh tomatoes + kale + onions + hummus
- dandelion green pesto + sweet potatoes + onions + fresh tomatoes
Dandelion Green Pesto
INGREDIENTS

- 1/2 cup nutritional yeast
- 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil

METHOD
Soak the walnuts for at least 30 minutes, and drain the water off. Add all ingredients to a high powered blender like a Vitamix and blend until smooth. Add water for desired (thicker) consistency. Spread over your favorite cooked crust and add other toppings – Enjoy!
