Basil Pesto Recipe (with Almonds)
If I could only have one sauce on hand for the rest of my life, it would 100% be basil pesto!!! During the summer we grow a lot of basil, and I often end up using it to make pesto.

3 Ingredient Vanilla Cashew butter
Move over peanut butter, there is a new nut butter in town....and it has vanilla! Cashew butter is kind of hard to come by in the store.
