All sounds great, except mint. “Wild plant”, Pesto. Sounds good.
What a fun thing to do! Thank you for sharing.
Cool
How is that “wild”? If you grow it yourself!? Hahahaha! “Wild” plants grow in their natural habitat which humans don’t control. The plant knows where and how to grow to receive the highest amount of nutrients from nature, hence it ends up being higher in antioxidants, micronutrients, etc compared to plants grown by humans.
But without the animal body parts, dairy or whey. Sounded amazing!
