I might have started on a dark path this past weekend. My aunt is in town until Christmas. Party over here
Just a lil cilantro
And a lil pistachio
I might need your help to break this habit. I make naan bread then I immediately make this cilantro lime pesto. Then I take the naan and smear the pesto all over it. I then repeat that process until all the naan and/or pesto is all done. I am obsessed. I might need to have an intervention, I need help. This cilantro lime pesto is seriously addicting.
I have used it as a dressing, as a dipping sauce, as a marinade. It really is that amazing and just that versatile. Did I mention it only has 5 ingredients? Basically, if you have cilantro, lime, pistachio, olive oil, and garlic you can enjoy this awesomeness.
Take a journey with me- I had it on toast, salmon, roasted vegetables, pasta, scrambled eggs, and naan. This might just be the perfect condiment. Seriously I haven’t found one thing I don’t like to eat this cilantro lime pesto with.
The best part is that it requires almost zero effort and is ready in literally 2 minutes. More time for eating. I mean that’s what is really important right?
