REFRESHING MINT PESTO RECIPE
Steps:
- Gather the ingredients.
- Make sure to wash and dry the parsley and mint leaves well. Add them to a blender or food processor . Add the garlic cloves, lemon juice, feta cheese, and if you are adding them, the almonds. Start processing (use the pulse feature if available) and drizzle in the olive oil through the top access point as it is blending.
- Once it is completely combined and finely minced, add salt and pepper to taste. Allow the pesto to sit for at least 10 minutes before serving. This allows the flavors to blend.

Steps:
- Cook the peas in boiling water for 2-3 minutes until just tender, then drain and refresh in cold water. Pat dry.
- Tip the peas into a food processor and add the garlic, pine nuts, parmesan, mint and olive oil. Season with salt and pepper, then pulse very briefly until the ingredients are roughly chopped. Don't overdo it - they should still have lots of texture. (You can freeze the pesto at this point.)
- Cook the spaghetti according to packet instructions until al dente - that's with a bit of bite still. Drain, reserving some of the cooking water.
- To serve, toss the spaghetti with the pesto and about 2 tbsp of the water. Pile into warmed bowls and serve at once, with parmesan and olive oil at the table.

- Make a mint pesto dressing: Combine fresh peppermint leaves, fresh basil leaves, almonds, garlic, grated hard cheese, extra virgin olive oil, salt and freshly ground black pepper in a cup of a food processor and blend until smooth, scrapping sides and adding water to adjust the consistency. The dressing should be a bit thinner than your regular pesto but not too thin. Reserve about 4 tablespoons and refrigerate the rest (you can use it for pasta or as a bread spread).
- Thread a watermelon cube onto a skewer following by a chunk of feta. Repeat until you have 3 watermelon cubes and 2 chunks of feta on the skewer. Continue with the rest of the skewers.
- Place watermelon skewers on a serving plate or into a container and drizzle with the pesto dressing. Garnish with peppermint leaves. Enjoy!
