BABY BELLA TORTAS WITH PINE NUT HERB PESTO by Chad Samo
This recipe has been a big hit at home. I’ll marinate the mushrooms as I chop the salad and mix up my pesto – delish!
16 crimini (button) mushrooms
1/4 cup Tamari sauce
1/4 cup olive oil
1/2 TB minced Oregano
Freshly cracked pepper
Marinate the stemmed mushrooms with the above ingredients and allow to sit for 20-60 mins, tossing gently occasionally.
1 cup fresh basil, chopped
2 TB fresh chives, chopped
1.5 TB fresh sage, chopped
3 TB fresh oregano, chopped
1/2 cup pine nuts or brazil nuts
1/4 cup olive oil
2 cloves garlic
1/2 tsp Himalayan Salt
1/4 cup cherry tomatoes
In food processor, process all fresh herbs, pine nuts, 1/4 cup olive oil, garlic and salt into a slightly chunky consistency.
When mushrooms have softened and are marinated, stuff each mushroom with 1/4 tsp of pesto, depending on size. Place a slice on cherry tomato on top to garnish (or so this after warming).
Place on dehydrator sheet and dehydrate for 1-2 hours. Or, simply place into a warmed oven to gently heat and then serve.
