In the blender, pour in 120 g of olive oil. Then add pumpkin seeds (25 g) and sunflower seeds (25 g), as well as walnuts (15 g) and fresh herbs such as dill and spinach (30 g).

Turn on the blender and use the pulsing mode to mix all the ingredients well. After that, switch to continuous blending mode to achieve a uniform mass.

Next, add a couple of cloves of garlic and blend again.

After that, add fresh basil (30 g) and blend again.

If you find that the sauce is too thin, you can add a little more nuts to thicken it.

If desired, you can add flax seeds to this version of pesto.
