Balsamic Parsley Pesto

A picky husband’s thumb up!  I’ve used this on grilled veggies and have rubbed it on a pork tenderloin about 20 minutes before grilling.  It was sweet, spicy and tangy all at the same time.  We love garlic here, but if you are not a huge garlic fan, you may choose to use either bottled garlic or only 1-2 cloves. 

Ingredients:

3 cloves garlic
1/2 Vidalia onion
2T pine nuts
1 large bunch parsley
4 T Extra Virgin Olive Oil
2.5 T balsamic vinegar

Steps:

1. In a food processor, process garlic and onion and pine nuts until very fine. Add in the parsley, put on the lid and drizzle in the oil and the vinegar.

Serve:

1. Spoon sauce over the grilled veggies.
2. Use as a dip for raw veggies.
3. Use as a spread for sandwiches.
4. Use it to marinate fish, chicken or pork.
