Red Pesto

Red Pesto

What an easy way to spice up your pesto recipe. I love swapping out basil for other herbs or greens and using beet crystals as a source of betalain — beets are great for the blood and capillaries. I’ve used this on pizza, over pasta, in salad dressings and on chicken. The colour is striking and the flavour is savory and intense. I hope you enjoy it as much as I have.
