    This is so delicious! I admit to not having tofu in the house and so omitted that ingredient. My tendency is to add ingredients according to whim (I added a little lemon juice and enough spinach to satisfy me) and mix until it feels right (used a blender). This recipe was very forgiving to my little changes. I froze portions in muffin cups. The bit that I had on crackers for lunch was astonishingly yummy!

    Tofu & Spinach Pesto, Tofu and spinach most people’s reaction when they see those words is Yuck! , but try this and see if your reaction is still the same 🙂 This is an incredibly easy and tasty way to pack the benefits of spinach & the protein content of the tofu to picky eaters Toss it into your pasta dish, replace tomato sauce on pizza with this, etc My favourite way to eat is is spread on fresh bread The measurements make it really easy to remember the recipe and you only need to use 1 measuring cup! I recommend you use firm tofu rather than silky because it is more nutritious Make it ahead and have pesto on hand whenever you want it!!!, This is so delicious! I admit to not having tofu in the house and so omitted that ingredient My tendency is to add ingredients according to whim (I added a little lemon juice and enough spinach to satisfy me) and mix until it feels right (used a blender) This recipe was very forgiving to my little changes I froze portions in muffin cups The bit that I had on crackers for lunch was astonishingly yummy!, The family liked it! I did add some fresh basil leaves, and added a little extra tofu and cheese I substituted chicken broth for water I was a little disappointed when I reheated it in the microwave as the sauce did break apart a bit I will reheat it more gently next time or just heat the pasta I can see how this would make a great sauce for lasagne
