 I found a good-tasting fatfree pesto recipe in *The New McDougall
 Cookbook* on page 190.  It is actually for a pasta salad (which was
 very good,) butthe pesto could be used for other dishes too.
 
 Pesto
 
 1 pound fresh spinach
 1 cup fresh basil leaves
 3-4 cloves garlic
 1/2 cup low-fat soy milk
 1/2 cup oil-free Italian dressing
 3 tablespoons onion powder
 2 tablespoons soy sauce
 
 Trim and wash the spinach.  Cook,covered, 2-3 minutes until
 wilted. Drain.  Place spinach and all the rest of the ingredients in a
 blender and process until smooth.
 
 I used this cold for a pasta salad dressing, but next time I'll heat
 it and try it hot.  My family, by the way, said that it tasted great,
 but looked like pond scum!  I told them to eat with their eyes closed
 :).
 
 Hope you enjoy it.  Monica  schalockm@macnet.com
