Wow your friends this December with some homemade walnut pesto- super nutritious and delicious.
Walnuts are the only nut to contain omega 3 (apart from butternut) linked in studies to improving sperm, motility, shape and quality. A great source of vitamin E – important for endometrial health. Also rich in magnesium the ‘happy mineral’ linked to improving sleep and reducing stress and anxiety. Magnesium also helps in producing progesterone and increasing blood supply to the uterus, which are both important for fertility.
How to make your Walnut Pesto:
Take a large handful of fresh basil, 4 oz of sun- dried tomatoes, 1 clove of garlic, 6oz of pre-soaked walnuts (for around 3 hours) and a good drizzle of olive oil. Blend the ingredients together in a food processor or using a hand- held blender and enjoy with crudites!
