Quotes from Tracey Anderson
"This vegan cashew pesto has all the goodness of a classic basil pesto but without all that cheese. Easiest basil pesto recipe you'll ever make."

"I used Califia Farms Unsweetened Almond Milk for a creamy texture and because it's dairy free with no added sugar."

"Here's what you can use this versatile pesto for:

• spread for toast
• dressing for a salad
• stirred through pasta
• as a pizza sauce
• on flatbreads
• as a dip
• As a snack with crackers"
