Kale Almond Pesto

Today was a long day and workouts have been intense. When I go to eat something, sometimes it's nice to have a condiment there that's healthy and add a different flavor to my everyday meals or snacks. This is one of my favorites, it's simple to make and it taste great with just about anything.
What you'll Need:
1/3 cup Roasted Almonds
6 0z of Kale
1 tbsp of Olive Oil
2-3 cloves a garlic
Dash of sea salt 

Cook it up:
First: I steamed the Kale for a few minutes. Just until gets bright green. I then add it into a food processor and chop it up. Once it's chopped I then add the almonds and garlic and blend it all together. Adding some olive oil  as you go. Last add a dash of sea salt to taste and maybe some fresh squeezed lemon if you feel daring ;) 

There you have it. Kale almond pesto! A little goes a long way, especially if you decided to use three cloves of garlic :) Whatever you don't use just store it away in an air tight container in the refrigerator and use it as you please guilt free!
