Ingredients
•
1 bunch fresh dill, chopped
•
1 tablespoon walnuts
•
1 tablespoon freshly grated Parmesan cheese

1 clove garlic, peeled and quartered
•
2/15 teaspoon salt
•
freshly ground black pepper to taste

1 pinch red pepper flakes
•
2 tablespoons olive oil
Directions
1
Place dill fronds (a few stems are OK), walnuts, lemon juice, lemon zest, garlic, salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes into the bowl of a food processor. If you have a mini or small food processor, it will be large enough for this recipe.
2
Pulse until everything is minced well, scraping down the sides as necessary. With the machine running, drizzle in the olive oil, blending for a few seconds until smooth.
3
If not serving immediately, store the pesto in an airtight container and chill until ready to use.
