This fell into my clutches from Mother Esarth News (a hangover from
my last century "tree hugging" days) which is still a great resource
even if corporat3ed greed has crept into its management.

      Title: Watercress Pesto
 Categories: Greens, Cheese, Spreads
      Yield: 3 servings

      4 lg Handsfull watercress
    1/2 c  Parmesan cheese; shaved or
           - shredded
    1/2 c  Unsalted nuts or seeds
    1/2 c  Extra virgin olive oil
           Sea salt
           Fresh garlic; opt
           Lemon juice; opt
           Pepper; opt

  Cut off the watercress roots, and then rinse the leaves
  and stems a few times to wash away any silt or debris.

  Blanch any wild-harvested watercress for about a minute
  in boiling water. Strain it in a colander first, and
  then squeeze the excess moisture out with a clean tea
  towel.

  Blend the watercress, cheese, and nuts or seeds in a
  food processor. Then, drizzle in the olive oil and
  process until it reaches the desired consistency. More
  or less oil is okay.

  Add salt as needed. You can also add fresh garlic, a
  sprinkle of lemon juice, or pepper.
