If you loved our spinach pistachio pesto recipe, then we’ve got two variations for you to try out. Whether you are looking for that tangy-acidic punch or more of a traditional Genovese-style pesto, we’ve got you covered with these two delicious recipes. An amazing feature of pesto is that, although it is a delicious pasta sauce, you can use it fairly universally as a dip for bread, meats, vegetables, or whatever you desire. Follow along to see how you can whip up our delicious cannabis infused sundried tomato pesto as well as our classic cannabis infused basil pesto, both packed full of THC.
Cannabis Infused Sundried Tomato Pesto
- 1 cup of sundried tomatoes
- 1/3 cup of pecorino romano (or parmesan)
- 1/4 cup of basil
- 1/4 cup of hemp seeds
- 1-3 cloves of garlic
- 1/2 cup of olive oil
- 3-5 ml of cannabis oil
To begin this simple recipe, you will need a food processor. You can chop the ingredients or mortar & pestle them, but for simplicity’s sake, we’ll stick with a food processor. Add in your sundried tomatoes first, and blend until they’ve broken down slightly. Next, add in all remaining ingredients. Pulse your processor until the pesto has completely blended.
Classic Infused Basil Pesto
- 3 cups of basil
- 1/3 cup of pecorino romano (or parmesan)
- 1/3 cup of hemp seeds
- 1-3 cloves of garlic
- 1/2 cup of olive oil
- 3-5 ml of cannabis oil
In your food processor, add in all of your basil and pulse until it breaks down slightly. Next, add in your cheese, hemp seeds, garlic, olive oil, and cannabis oil. Reattach the lid and process until completely pulverized. You may need to stop to scrape the sides down as you blend. It’s as simple as that!
