Step-by-Step Instructions
- Rinse quinoa under cold water in a fine mesh sieve. In a medium saucepan, bring 1 cup of water to a boil, then add the rinsed quinoa. Reduce heat to low, cover, and let it simmer for about 15 minutes or until all the water is absorbed.
- Drain and rinse butter beans and lentils in a colander under cold water, then place aside.
- In a food processor, blend olive oil, spinach, basil, parsley, sunflower seeds, nutritional yeast, garlic, lemon juice, and salt & pepper until smooth and creamy.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine cooked quinoa, rinsed butter beans, lentils, and 1/3 cup of the pesto. Add chopped sun-dried tomatoes and mix gently.
- Divide the mixture into serving bowls, drizzling remaining pesto over the top. Serve with grilled gluten-free bread or crackers.
