This creamy basil sauce is going on EV-ER-Y-THING in my life: sandwiches, eggs, grilled chicken and veggies, dipped with chips?! It\u2019s so good, packed with green goodness, beautifully summery, and I\u2019m doing the most with it.<\/p>\n

How To Make This Basil Sauce<\/h2>\n

Step 1: Get all your ingredients ready.<\/h3>\n

You can use a blender, food processor, or a mini-chopper type gadget. I love this mini-chopper (LINK). It\u2019s not meant for sauces necessarily, but I use it all the time because it\u2019s super compact.<\/p>\n

<\/figure>\n

Step 2: Blend your basil sauce!<\/h3>\n

That\u2019s it! Just a blend, taste, and adjust! <\/p>\n

This sauce can be a bit chunky \/ textured so keep it going until it has the consistency you want. I prefer something right before completely pureed \u2013 where it has just barely noticeable flecks of herbs, but it\u2019s mostly smooth and creamy.<\/p>\n

Step 3: Put It On All Your Yummy Things<\/h3>\n

Like so. (Here\u2019s that recipe<\/a>.)<\/p>\n

Lindsay\u2019s Notes<\/h2>\n

Ooh baby. Basil, chives, garlic, and a tiny hit of oregano all in a creamy, salty, bright green sauce \u2013 I love this so much. <\/p>\n

The first time I made this, my toddler (who mostly just eats crackers) found a spatula and just sat at the counter licking the remnants of the sauce out of the blender with me. And I hear that from a lot of people \u2013 many kids seem to be very into this for unknown reasons. Sometimes it just hits right, ya know? A+ for that experience.<\/p>\n

My favorite thing about this sauce, besides that it tastes like heaven, is that makes healthy-ish eating something I really, actually look forward to.<\/p>\n

Baked salmon is goes up about 100 notches in my book when smothered in this creamy green sauce. Same goes for shrimp, chicken, and a big fresh salad or lots of roasted veggies. <\/p>\n

This will not be the last we see of this sauce which is why I decided to give it its own page on POY. Welcome home, little basil sauce.<\/p>\n

Things You Could Put It On<\/h2>\n

The possibilities! They are endless.<\/p>\n
