- Cut lettuce head in quarters, rinse the quarters in a colander and place on paper towels to dry. Then place them in a gallon zip-lock bag and put them into the refrigerator to chill.
- In a food processor or blender, add fresh basil, olive oil, pine nuts and cream. Pulse to combine then blend on low for several minutes to incorporate ingredients.
- Zest the two limes and set the zest aside. Then cut the limes into halves and squeeze juice into the mixture. Blend together again. Place zest in a zip-lock bag and refrigerate for garnish.
- Place pesto dressing in a bowl, cover and refrigerate one hour before serving over the lettuce wedges. Very refreshing! Enjoy.
