This paleo-friendly basil pesto recipe is a must-have when making chicken or lean fish as it adds some good quality fat to balance out the macronutrient ratio. It also pairs well with eggplant, potatoes, or zucchini!

Add the lemon juice and continue mixing.
While the food processor is on, slowly add the olive oil until thoroughly mixed.
Pour into a pint-sized mason jar, add sea salt to taste, and stir.
