White Bean Pesto

This light, oil-free pesto is perfect for summer pasta dishes. It's cheap and easy to whip up, and is also high in veggie protein and fibre. What's not to love...?
Ingredients
1 tin (400g) white beans, drained - we used butter beans
Two large handfuls fresh basil
2 cloves garlic, minced
Juice 1/2 lemon
Salt and pepper, to taste
1-2 tbsp Nutritional Yeast (or add Parmesan for non-vegan)
Method
1) Place all ingredients into a high-powered blender and blitz until completely smooth, adding a few tablespoons of water if needed to help it become creamy.
2) Season to taste, then serve with cooked Rizopia pasta.
