This is a recipe I love because it’s bursting with alkalising greens. The KIKI Health supplement (available from the incredible wellness platform W-Wellness) truly elevates the nourishment of the pesto, as it’s rich in sea vegetables, algae, enzymes and green plants. It can be used either as a dip or as a sauce – use less water for a thicker dip, or a little more if you’re aiming for a looser, pasta-style sauce.
