Low FODMAP pesto with a crunch

Low FODMAP pesto with a crunch

fitfodmapfoodieuk
I love pesto. And probably I am not the only one! For this Low FODMAP pesto with a crunch, I had this huge basil plant that needed to be trimmed and, using everyday staple ingredients I decided to make my version of pesto. Without garlic, of course, so it is Low FODMAP.
