Pesto Walnuts - The perfect cheese platter addition


California is known for many things.
Sunshine, beaches, movie stars...
and WALNUTS!

They are a treat simply fresh out of the shell,
 but if you are looking for a little pizzaz, 
you need to make these Pesto Walnuts.


They have all of the classic flavors of pesto on the walnut,
 instead of the walnut being in the pesto...

They are savory and so flavorful.
The perfect snack on their own or a great addition to your holiday entertaining.

Don't you wish they all could be California nuts?



Pesto Walnuts

Place 1 cup of California halved walnuts, 1 Tablespoon of Butter and 2 finely minced garlic cloves in a small pan. Sautè over medium heat, until golden, about 8-10 minutes. Let mixture cool slightly and toss with shaved parmesan cheese, lemon zest and chopped, fresh basil and kosher salt.
