I know this may sound like a bit of an unusual combination but trust me it works. If you have a few spare minutes on your hands and want to impress your family..then whip up this pesto and serve it with fresh veggies, toasted pitta or tortilla chips. I promise it is well worth it!
This pesto is completely vegan and is made with whole real ingredients, which for me is absolutely KEY. I love the addition of the Goji Berries as it gives it a subtle sweetness that really elevates the whole dish. If you are looking to purchase some goji berries I highly recommend the @goodyfull Goody Box as it contains 4 pouches of superfoods for only £7.98…thats a deal if ever I saw one!
