Carrot Top Pesto

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup toasted almonds, sliced


• 1 cup parmesan cheese, grated


• 2 cloves of garlic, minced


• 1 bunch carrot tops, leaves only, discard the stems


• Juice of 1 lemon


• 1 tablespoon honey


• 1 cup olive oil or enough to blend it all together into a thick pesto


• salt to taste


• 6 eggs

Directions

• For the pesto: Put the ingredients in a food processor and blend thoroughly. Blend it more than you would other pestos, you don’t want any big carrot leaves as they will get stuck in your throat. When everything is well broken up, add a little more olive oil to loosen it up so you can drape the pesto over your egg.

1. For the eggs: Cover the eggs with cold water in a sauce pot. Bring to a boil then shut off the heat, cover the pot and wait for 10 minutes. After 10 minutes, submerge the eggs in ice water. Wait another 10 minutes then peel the eggs and cut into quarters. Place quartered eggs on a serving dish and drape with the pesto.
