Delicious Herb Pesto

Ingredients:

1 clove garlic
1 anchovy fillet in oil
½ small shallot, chopped
1 teaspoon lemon juice
handful chopped fresh Italian parsley
handful chopped kale
2-3 tablespoons chopped fresh tarragon
1 tablespoon chopped chives

Pulse garlic, anchovy, and shallot in food processor until chopped. With the food processor running, add lemon juice, parsley, kale, tarragon and chives.
Very slowly drizzle in olive oil until kale and herbs get sufficiently chopped and everything is the consistency of a pesto. Add olive oil depending on how big a “handful” of herbs is to you.
Season with salt and pepper. This recipe will make quite enough but you can save it for many different recipes!
