how to: vegan pesto

There’s nothing like a fresh, homemade pesto to uplift meals to gourmet status, and these dairy-free recipes are a perfect match for pasta, noodles, grilled vegetables and more.

You can serve these tasty, nutritious pestos in a multitude of ways. We love them tossed through buckwheat noodles, spread on a sandwich or drizzled as a salad dressing. And, these dairy-free pestos are fantastic for sharing with lactose-intolerant guests. Best of all, they double as a dip, perfect for entertaining! Try four spins on this delicious dressing-turned-dip and see which pesto you love most:

BROCCOLI, TOASTED ALMOND AND MINT PESTO

COOK’S TIP:
