I really love Pesto but hate all the fat in it so I tried my own recipe today! Tastes delicious!

Here are the ingredients:
1 large bunch (about 1 oz) of fresh basil
1/2 an ounce of parsley (about half the amount of basil)
1 garlic clove
25g of grated romano parmesan cheese
25g of olive oil (about 30mL)
25g of unsalted chicken broth
10 almonds

Instructions:
Mix everything together in a food processor. Add extra chicken broth if you desire a different consistency.


Nutrition facts:

I would be happy to share a picture but I am unsure how to do it on here. Any tips?
