healthy dish for the delicious use of carrot greens

Wash the carrot tops and remove any coarse stems. The tops should be as fresh as possible and not wilted. Lightly roast the almonds in a pan without oil. Roughly chop the tops and place them in a tall bowl with the almonds. Blend with a hand blender. Gradually add the olive oil until the desired consistency is reached. (The oil quantity is only a rough guide.) Season the pesto to taste with salt, pepper, nutritional yeast, and vegetable broth. Serve with pasta.
