Ingredients

>> 1/2 cup olive oil
>> 2 large lemons, squeezed and keep the pulp
>> 1/4 cup packed fresh ground ivy leaves
>> 1 tablespoons honey or maple syrup (optional for vegans)
>> 3 cloves garlic, roughly chopped
>> 1/4 tsp sea salt
>> 1/4 tsp black pepper

Instructions

Try to remove all thick stems from the ground ivy. Smaller and thinner ones will fare through a food processor well, but thicker stems will not break down well.

In a food processor, combine all of the ingredients and blend until smooth. Taste, and if desired, add more spices.

Cover and refrigerate up to one week.
