Pesto

1. In a food processor, pulse basil, cashews, garlic, and salt, until cashews are finely chopped and evenly textured.
2. Add the miso, nutritional yeast, and hemp seeds. Pulse until combined.
3. While the processor is running, very slowly pour in the olive oil, followed by the water.
4. To prevent oxidation, spoon pesto into a small jar and top with a thin layer of olive oil. As you use the pesto you can stir the oil in, or discard/reserve for later.

Pesto Potatoes

2. Cut any larger potatoes in half.
3. Combine potatoes, olive oil, and generous sprinkle of salt. Mix well.
4. Spread potatoes onto baking sheet. Bake for 15 minutes. Flip, and bake for another 10-15 minutes, or until potatoes are fork tender and golden brown.
