This Cashew Hemp Seed Pesto is creamy, easy to make, and so versatile! I used it as a polenta topper here-- by using a little less water I made it more like a spread. It works great as a sauce for noodles and veggies too!
I've really gotten into hemp seeds lately. They're a complete protein with all essential amino acids and a good source of omega-3's. Between the hemp seeds and cashews, this pesto packs some protein!
