From this first batch, collected right at the beginning of the season, I made an utterly flavorful pesto (you can find the recipe below under the risotto recipe or simply click here to head right to it). It's really simple, no fancy or overly expensive (yes, I'm looking at you pine nuts!) ingredients involved. And it's also incredible versatile, as you can see here or you could use it here instead of the regular basil pesto. For me, that's one of the most important parts in making my own sauces ...

Best GF Chocolate Cookies
I certainly haven't felt my best over the last couple of weeks. The weather has been dreary, I didn't get enough good night sleep and the beginning of the season somehow caught me off guard. But with every low comes a high, doesn't it? The high for me was creating this amazing little treat. And, without doubt, they are the best glutenfree chocolate cookies I've ever made.
