Gut Friendly Mint & Herb Pesto

This vibrant, herb-forward pesto is a breath of fresh air — bright with mint, earthy from basil and parsley, and lifted by a hit of lemon zest and juice. The combination of three fresh herbs creates a layered, complex flavor that feels far more interesting than a standard store-bought sauce. Because the ingredient list is clean and straightforward — no cheese, no nuts, no processed additives — it's a genuinely gentle option for anyone keeping an eye on what goes into their food. Olive oil brings everything together into a silky, spoonable paste that's easy on the digestive system while still delivering serious flavor. The food processor does all the heavy lifting, so you're looking at just a few minutes of hands-on effort from start to finish. Stir it through pasta, spoon it over grilled fish or roasted vegetables, or use it as a dip — the possibilities are wide open. Pressing plastic wrap directly onto the surface before storing is a smart little trick that keeps it looking and tasting fresh for days.
