Spinach pesto is such a delicious healthy fridge staple. It’s great for a quick supper stirred through pasta, dotted with mozzarella and walnuts, or as a lovely snack, simply spread over sourdough toast. It also pairs really well with fish, particularly Salmon.
The delicious nutty buttery taste of our Mellow Yellow Rapeseed Oil really compliments the spinach and walnuts in this recipe, the oil is very low in saturated fat, and rich in omega 3 and vitamin E so is the perfect choice for making a healthy pesto.
