Cilantro Pesto
I love pesto. I love cilantro. So, why not combine the two?
Mix cilantro, cashews, and olive oil together in a food processor. I used cashews because I had them on hand, and the price of pine nuts is outrageous!
Blend until smooth.
Stir into pasta until evenly distributed.
I tossed mine with halved grape tomatoes and canned artichoke hearts, for a fresh and delightful meal.

It's looks delicious. What kind of food processor do you have?

Thanks Shannon! I have a Cusinart food processor, and I love it! I makes making sauces and soups so much easier!
DeleteThat does look delicious. And cashews are a great idea. I'm a fan of cilantro too...wish I could convert my husband. (= Lynaea @ EverydayBloom.com
