These avoid the use of crappy polyunsaturated oils such as canola, soy or sunflower.
Extra virgin olive oil is a much better choice as it supports cardiovascular health, longevity and helps our cell walls develop strong membranes as they grow.
BASIL PESTO:
1 x bunch fresh basil (rinsed)
1/2 cup macadamias
2 heaped tbsp savoury yeast flakes
1/4 tsp macrobiotic sea salt
juice of 1 large lemon
1-2 small garlic cloves
pinch pepper
100ml extra virgin olive oil
Blend well for 20-30 sec, scrape, then repeat.
HUMMUS:
1 x can organic chick peas (rinsed)
1 x garlic clove
1 tsp cumin
1 tsp coriander (ground)
1/2 tsp macrobiotic sea salt
3 tbsp water
50ml extra virgin olive oil
heaped tbsp hulled tahini
Blend until smooth. This may take up to 2 mins!
These dips are my go-to. I add them to salads, dip fruits and veggies into them, and take them to parties as a part of a side platter. They’re ALWAYS a winner for both taste and health benefits.
