Ingredients

  • 2 cups fresh basil leaves
  • 1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
  • 1/3 cup pine nuts
  • 3-4 cloves garlic
  • 1-2 teaspoons THC-infused olive oil (adjust based on desired potency)
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Going Step by Step

  1. In a food processor, combine the basil leaves, Parmesan cheese, pine nuts, and garlic cloves. Pulse until the ingredients are well combined and finely chopped.
  2. While the food processor is running, slowly drizzle in the extra virgin olive oil. Continue blending until the mixture reaches a smooth and creamy consistency.
  3. Add the THC-infused olive oil and pulse a few more times to incorporate it evenly into the pesto.
  4. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Give it a final blend to ensure everything is well mixed.
  5. Give it a try and enjoy!

Tips

  • Ensure your cannabis-infused olive oil is properly labeled and stored away from children and pets.
  • Start with a small amount of THC-infused olive oil and gradually increase the dosage to suit your preferences.
  • Store any leftover pesto in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.

We are sure you are a perfect cook! Nonetheless, do remember to pay attention to the amount of THC Infused Pesto you consume: it should always be modified based on the strength of your product and the potency you desire. Dosing homemade edibles can be tricky, so it is strongly recommended to start with one portion of a serving. After one or two hours, listen to your body and decide whether to consume more. It is not recommended to drive or operate any machinery when taking edibles. Use responsibly!
