Maybe my expectations were not properly managed by calling this pesto. Despite the cup of fresh basil, I found this soup on the bland side. It's healthy though-ingredients include pureed cauliflower, garlic and Swiss chard. There is a small amount of oil, the rest of the base is broth. So you'll feel virtuous eating this, but don't serve it to impress. I recommend you take her suggestion to garnish with pine nuts. Also, cut the cauliflower into small florets, as I had imperfect results pureeing.

Isa is one of the best recipe writers I know, and this recipe is written in her clear, friendly manner.

Equipment needed: dutch oven or stock pot, immersion blender (preferable and more fun!) or blender/food processor.
