6 Natural Grocers® Brand Regenerative Organic Pasture-Raised Eggs, hardboiled, peeled, and sliced in half
1 1⁄2 cups Natural Grocers Brand Organic Shredded Parmesan Cheese, (sub a dairy-free “Parmesan” for a dairy-free or vegan version)
1 cup organic baby spinach
1⁄2 cup organic basil leaves
1 1⁄2 tablespoons organic lemon juice
2 organic garlic cloves, roughly chopped
1⁄4 cup Natural Grocers Brand Bulk Organic Walnut Halves and Pieces
2⁄3 cup Natural Grocers Brand Organic Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1⁄2 teaspoon Natural Grocers Brand Bulk Real Salt, plus extra for the eggs
1⁄2 teaspoon Natural Grocers Brand Bulk Organic Ground Black Pepper, plus extra for the eggs
Natural Grocers Brand Bulk Organic Paprika, (for garnish)

1. Add the Parmesan cheese, spinach, basil, lemon juice, garlic cloves, walnuts, olive oil, salt, and pepper to a food processor. Process until smooth, scraping down the sides as needed. Taste and adjust seasonings as desired.

2. Once pesto is smooth, lightly season the hardboiled egg halves with salt and pepper and place a dollop of pesto over each. Garnish with a sprinkle of paprika and serve.

3. Store leftover pesto in the refrigerator for up to five days; leftovers are delicious on pasta (or zoodles), potatoes, grilled vegetables, fish, chicken, tofu, or steak.
