Easy, fast, and flavorful. The parmesan cheese is the perfect touch. I've used walnuts, almonds, and even cashews with this recipe.

wonderful ! tastes great. A combo of tart & almost sweet. I used pine nuts, and a very good hard parmesan. No extra charge: super=easy to make.

Excellent. I did not use the pine nuts. Did not want to go to grocery store. The color was a brilliant green green. Taste was very good. Used it as a sandwich condiment & also as a sauce o n pasta. WI'll make it again. Thank you for the recipe.

It turned out great.I love pesto on about anything from spagetti to fahitas,to tacos and so easy to make.Much fresher than what you buy at the stores

Needs walnuts!
Walnuts are cheaper than pignolas, and fuller-bodied, giving a nice texture to the sauce. Other than that, it's just like my own recipe.

The recipe looks perfect-will make as soon as I get some fresh basil from my local farmer's market this spring...thank you!
