Watercress and Dill Butter

A great topping for pasta, fish, chicken, vegetables, just about anything. Ingredients:

About 1/4 C watercress, 1/2 C butter, 2T dill

Chop and blend

Chill in refrigerator until firm.

Use all sorts of ways. I spread the watercress dill butter on naan.

Then added a tomato.

Then added brie. YUM. Enjoy.

Watercress Pesto is perfecto!

Watercress makes a perfect substitute (or improvement) for basil in a traditional pesto recipe.
Ingredients:

A great bunch of B&W Watercress

about 1/2 C shredded parmesan

about 1/4 C pine nuts

olive oil to blend, about 1/4 C

You can easily adjust the quantities of these ingredients to your personal taste.

Blend all ingredients until it becomes a paste-like texture.

You can use on pasta, like traditional pesto, or on vegetables, like I did.

Zucchini and mushrooms.

Cook at 350 degrees for 25 to 30 minutes. Let cool slightly, serve.

Enjoy!
