Romaine and Sesame Seed Pesto

V is for Variety and R is for Romaine Pesto


Welcome to the Vegan Month of Food (VeganMoFo)  I intend to post 20 times during the month of September – all about vegan food. Check out the gals who organize the project here, and search out other fantastic vegan bloggers. I decided on the theme of “V is for Variety” because, honestly, once I quit the chicken breast – my food choices exploded! Join me!



“You can make pesto from anything!”

“Really? Anything?”

“Yes, just take a green ‘basil-y’ thing, add some type of toasted ‘pine-nut-y’ thing and some seasonings. Plop it all in a food processor and watch what happens. ”

“Sounds too good to be true.”

“Try it! You’ll like it!”

“How about romaine lettuce, sesame seeds, lemon zest, garlic, hot pepper flakes and olive oil. Oh, and salt.”

“Go for it! Add in some sun dried tomatoes at the end for a nice tangy bite.”
