Pesto Instructions:
In a dry pan (no oil) over low-medium heat, roast the pine nuts. Remove and cool.
Cut off the carrot tops and wash the leaves. Pat dry and add in the carrot tops and all the remaining ingredients to the blender except for the oil.
Blend in a food processor until completely broken down.
Add in olive oil gradually while blending until you get a slightly emulsified sauce. Add more oil or water if needed.
