Ingredientes
2 cups fresh basil leaves, packed

Preparación
Toast the pine nuts in a dry skillet over medium heat for 2-3 minutes until lightly browned and fragrant. Set aside to cool.
In a food processor, add the basil leaves, pine nuts, vegan parmesan, and garlic. Pulse until finely chopped.
While the food processor is running, slowly pour in the olive oil.
Blend until smooth.
Add salt and pepper to taste, and pulse a few more times to incorporate.
Serve the pesto on pasta, as a spread on sandwiches, or as a dip for vegetables.
Enjoy your vegan basil pesto with pine nuts and vegan parmesan!
