Ingredients list:
- 4 cups of fresh parsley

Step by step:

- Peel the garlic and add it to the mix.
- Pour the olive oil and water into the herb mix and blend.

the parmesan cheese under (the addition of parmesan is optional). We
liked it with and without, when we left it out we just added a few more
cashews.

about 2 tablespoons of freshly pressed lemon juice (add it bit by bit
and taste in between).
