Pesto Pasta Made With Kelp Noodles (Dr. Oz)

Ingredients

  • 1 package kelp noodles
  • 1 tbsp raw pine nuts
  • 2 cups organic cilantro
  • 3 cloves organic garlic
  • 1/2 cup olive oil
  • 2 tbsp toasted sesame oil
  • 2 tbsp organic lemon juice
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp pepper

Preparation

Step 1

Rinse noodles well, then place in a bowl and cover with water. Let soak for 10 to 15 minutes.

In a small dry hot skillet, toast pine nuts for a couple minutes until they start to brown. Remove from heat and set aside. In a food processor, combine cilantro and garlic and blend while slowly adding in oils, lemon juice, salt and pepper. Continue to blend until it's a smooth consistency. You may have to pause to scrape the sides a few times.

Drain noodles and rinse again, then pat dry in a clean kitchen towel and add back to bowl.

Pour pesto mixture over noodles and toss to coat. Top with toasted pine nuts.
