My favorite herbs for pesto is of course the standard basil. I do love Parsley pesto better than spinach. And since I have flax-seed, i was like why not use it instead of nuts. This pesto is friendly for an autoimmune paleo diet and keto diet also.

How to store Pesto

I love how you can store this pesto for up to a week in the fridge.

You ca also do a canning if you love making them in batches.
