Anti Inflammatory Pesto-Walnut Radish & Herb Yogurt Snack Box
This snack box is proof that eating with your health in mind doesn't have to feel like a compromise. The star of the show is a rough, herb-forward walnut pesto — blitzed from fresh basil, parsley, garlic, and extra-virgin olive oil — that brings serious depth alongside a cool, dill-and-chive-laced yogurt dip. Walnuts show up twice, both blended into the pesto and tucked in whole for snacking, making them a quiet powerhouse throughout the whole spread. Radishes, cucumber, cherry tomatoes, and celery round out the box with crunch and color, and every single component leans on ingredients known for their antioxidant and omega-rich properties. The whole thing comes together in just a few minutes of chopping and a quick spin of the food processor — no cooking required. It serves two, so it's ideal for a shared afternoon snack or a light, satisfying lunch you can prep and portion right into individual boxes.

Instructions
- 1
Make the walnut pesto: combine the walnuts, basil, parsley, and garlic in a food processor and pulse 8–10 times until coarsely chopped. Add the olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper, then process until the mixture is a rough, spreadable paste — some texture is fine. Taste and adjust salt if needed.
- 2
Make the herb yogurt: stir together the yogurt, dill, chives, lemon juice, and salt in a small mixing bowl until evenly combined. Taste and adjust seasoning.
