Pea Pesto

June 28, 2016 by Samantha 3 Comments

I had forgotten how much I love pesto in the Summer. It’s quick, packed full of strong and sweet basil, and in this case, it’s loaded with iron and fibre and Vitamin C from the peas for a serious vegetarian delight. I love how green this pesto got from the peas. Plus, fresh peas, which scream early Summer to me. I adore watching my littles peel apart the pods and squeal with delight on their petite treasures inside. Fun with toddlers at meal time. I kid you not friends.

Pea Pesto | My Kitchen LoveAll 3 of my kids love, love, love pesto. And this pea pesto in particular, which makes me feel good about making it for them. Whether it’s coating pasta, potatoes, used on pizza, spread on sandwiches, or as a dip for other veggies and bread, it does my mama heart good knowing they’re getting some truly nutritious food. We enjoyed our pesto multiple ways. First it was spread as the base on pizza dough, then topped with pasta, and then used as a dip with vegetables. Our next batch was used with boiled potatoes and spread on bbq’d chicken breasts for a light and yummy Summer dish.

Pea Pesto | My Kitchen Love

I’ve added lots of basil and garlic to brightened up the peas and lemon juice to reduce the overall amount of oil required. Not that I’m against oil, but I think the lemon juice is a necessary component to balance out the flavours and bring a touch of acid to the recipe.

It’s Robbie Burns Day tomorrow and I’d love to It’s Robbie Burns Day tomorrow and I’d love to know if anyone is making anything special for it? While I won’t be making Hagis, I am quite likely to put a pot of Scottish Mince on. And if there’s mince, there will most definitely be mash (aka tatties) too. 

This Mince and Tatties recipe takes me back to my Nana’s kitchen or to one of my many trips to Scotland as a child, watching my Great Aunts make a comforting and delicious mince meal. Memories 💕

Blood Orange Gin and Tonics are on my bucket list Blood Orange Gin and Tonics are on my bucket list this weekend. Their bright and tropical colour take my Winter blues away. If you’re looking for more winter-y beverage options (including a dry January one) hop over to my stories where I’ve featured some cocktails from friends. 

TGIF 🥂 We made it and I’m personally SO excited to sleep in tomorrow. And when you have kids that basically means nothing. 🤣

Pork Carnitas Burrito Bowls (or turn into tacos li Pork Carnitas Burrito Bowls (or turn into tacos like we often do) are by far my kids favourite meal and one where I don’t have to make a ton of different options.  I mean, less work for a dinner with less whining? I’ll take it! 

The 🍍 salsa is not to be missed. Tropical fruit is coming into season friends! A great time to switch up the usual for thrifty buys and satisfied tummies 😋

These Banana Buckwheat Donuts are happening this week for school lunches. Kids dig them. I dig them. Done deal. I just need a hot 30 min to make them happen. 

A friend also turned the recipe into a loaf so there are options out there if you don’t have a donut 🍩 pan.

This 4-Ingredient Green Smoothie gets a bucket loa This 4-Ingredient Green Smoothie gets a bucket load of spinach into our diets before we leave the house for school and work. It's one of my long time smoothies that I make for my kids. 

We've had it a few days in a row now to help us hit reset in the new year. 

The omega oil is optional and I sometimes switch out the banana for a navel orange for a different flavour profile. Oh and if you're an Orange Julius fan, try a 1/2 tsp of vanilla extract - you won't regret it!
