Broccoli Pesto

If you have any grain or vegetables try this.

• Half a head broccoli (or cauliflower) chopped into one inch pieces
• ½ cup chopped basil
• 3 cloves of garlic minced
• 1 cup pine nuts
• 1/3 cup parmesan cheese
• ½ cup extra virgin olive oil
• juice and zest of one lemon
• 1- 2 cups left over wild rice, millet, amaranth or quinoa

Make a dressing with the lemon,  garlic and oil and mix well. Assemble the vegetable, cheese, nuts, and grain and pour the dressing over and the grain, vegetables mix and serve!
