new invention:
PESTO + GUACAMOLE = PESTOMOLE

Make pesto and guacamole and combine them.

Pesto is made in the blender.
ingredients include:
1 cup fresh basil
1/4 cup fresh parsley
1 cup olive oil
1 bulb or 12 cloves garlic
1 tsp. salt
1/2 cup pine nuts
add more oil (for ease of blending)
stir in by hand til thickened:
1/2 cup freshly grated parmsan cheese
store in an air tight jar with a small
amount of olive oil poured on topo to seal it.
stir in oil before using...this keeps well in
the refridgerator.

Guacomole:
dice and mash four avocados
add minced onion...red is best..1/2 onion
add 1 tsp. herbal salt seasoning "Spike"
and the juice of 1 lemon

combine 1/4 cup each of pesto and "guac"
for a good spread, dip, or topping.
can also mix it with vinegar and oil
(or italian dressing) for salad dressing
