Pea Pesto with Rice

This is a delicious way to give your kids vegetables. I made a pesto with peas and then mixed it with cooked rice- it was absolutely delicious…

  • 1 ½ cups frozen peas, blanched in boiling water for a minute and drained
  • 1 garlic clove, smashed
  • ½ cup cilantro, chopped
  • 2 green onions, chopped
  • ¼ cup extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 3 cups basmati rice, cooked al dente

Place the blanched peas, garlic, cilantro, green onions, oil and salt in a food processor and process till smooth. Take out and check for seasonings. Add to warm, cooked rice. Mix well and serve.
