Instructions

First, make sure you wash your carrot tops REALLY well! Rinse them, soak them in water and vinegar, and then rinse them again. Then, add 1 cup of carrot top greens, 1 cup of fresh basil, 1/4 cup of almonds, 3 tbsp of olive oil, juice of 1 lemon, 1 tsp of salt, and 1 clove of garlic to a food processor. Pulse until combined. You want it to be smooth, but not too smooth; it should still have some texture. Transfer to an airtight container and store in the fridge for up to a week!
