Basil & Spinach Pesto

Who doesn't love pesto? Its such a wonderful thing! The only thing i dont enjoy is the amount of oil and nuts that are usually in a standard pesto recipe. So i made a nice lightened version with some veggies snuck in for good measure!

  • ✨ANKYLOSING SPONDYLITIS AWARENESS ✨ 🚨 LONG READ, PLEASE READ 🚨 Good morning friends! ☀️ I’d like to use this platform for more than recipes, I’d like to take a minute and spread some awareness..chronic pain awareness. Over 15 years I’ve been dealing with chronic pain and many other physical issues. Most recently it was confirmed I do in fact have Ankylosing Spondylitis after being told over the years on and off that I do or don’t have it… I’ve gone through COUNTLESS bloodwork, MRI’s , x-rays, scans.. I’ve been poked, preyed , flipped and flopped in MANY different type of tests… most of them involving needles..😫 Ankylosing Spondylitis causes extreme inflammation. There are MANY days where I can barely walk, cannot sit too long, also sleeping isn’t as relaxing as it should be. You just hurt all over. AS ( Ankylosing Spondylitis) also causes eye issues so I deal with iritis, which causes inflammation in my eyes that makes my eyes blurry or super red. It also makes them extremely sensitive to light and physically hurt to move on some days. This daily 24/7 pain is super hard to deal with especially being a stay at home mom of 3 kids and 2 large dogs. On top of that I am trying to make a career out of my culinary background here on social media… but it doesn’t stop me!!! I’m mentally and physically exhausted by mid day but I always have to push through the pain. Losing the 100 pounds that I did was definitely something that helped relieve a little pain and pressure but not all… This isn’t a sympathetic post, I’m just wanting to spread some awareness and possibly help someone else that deals with this daily that may need some answers as well. I was just prescribed @humira_adalimumab and injected my first dose the other day here at my house on my own. I’m hoping this treatment will help me and relieve some if not all of my chronic pain! 💜 For those that deal with chronic pain, I get it! Need to talk? I’m here.. always! 💕 𝓒𝓱𝓮𝓯 𝓐𝓵𝓵𝓲𝓮
