The main reason to making this recipe nut free was quite frankly because I didn't have any pine nuts in the house! There are so many opinions on whether it is safe to give babies nuts before they are two or not. I personally tried out peanut butter with my baby which he loved! And didn't have any reactions. If I were to make this recipe again I would most likely use pine nuts!
The ingredients for this recipe are:
1 clove garlic
1 large handful fresh basil
A handful of grated Parmesan or hard cheese
1 tbsp olive oil
Pine nuts (optional)
You will also need 1 pestle and mortar.
Remove skin from garlic and crush. Add the basil, cheese and oil and crush until fine consistency.
It is that easy! I served mine with high protein wholewheat pasta and a few chopped cherry tomatoes. It was a big hit! This would also be nice in sandwiches or on salads.
