Crazy Cashew Pesto (vegan)

1 large bunch of watercress, cleaned and coarsely chopped
3T olive oil
1/2 cup cashews
2 cloves garlic (optional)
pinch of sea salt (optional)

Saute your watercress (and garlic) in the olive oil for a few minutes. Transfer to a food processor with the cashew nuts, and process roughly, so that nut pieces are still visible. Serve over your favorite pasta, warm or cold.

The watercress is a little bit bitter, and the cashews sweet and buttery, so the combination is really nice together!
