Paleo pesto
I needed a fully paleo pesto for my month on the Whole 30 and came up with this more-ish bowl of heaven. It can easily be eaten by the spoonful, but you could use it as a topping for fish or chicken. I sliced up an aubergine into about 10 slices, basted one side with olive oil and generously spread the pesto on the other. I roasted them on a baking sheet @ 180*C for 35 mins.
Super easy
Fairly cheap
