Red Cabbage and Gorgonzola Pesto

Red Cabbage and Gorgonzola Pesto

This unusually vibrant pesto gets it color from red cabbage.  A little gorgonzola adds depth and intensity to an otherwise subdued vegetable. 

Ingredients

  • 1 clove garlic
  • ¼ medium head red cabbage
  • 2 tbsp apple vinegar
  • 4 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • ¼ cup gorgonzola

Preparation

  1. In a large skillet over medium heat, add a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil, following by the chopped garlic. Sauté for one minute, then add the red cabbage and cook for another 12 minutes, stirring occasionally. 
  2. Transfer the red cabbage to a food processor.  Add the apple vinegar, olive oil, and gorgonzola. Blend until smooth and creamy. Add a little extra vinegar, salt, or olive oil, as needed.
