Cleansing Spring Arugula Pesto
Help digestion and lower blood pressure.This pesto is easy to make and cleansing for the liver and gallbladder. I recommend making this in the springtime. Arugula has a handful of great health benefits, it is helpful with digestion and it lowers the blood pressure. Pregnancy is a time when women should be eating more folate, iron, calcium and zinc and arugula is packed with all of these things.
