I put walnuts, parmesan cheese, red roasted pepers, kalamata olives or black olives and mix it all together. Oh yes, a clove or two of garlic went in there too. Spread on flat bread or slightly dried thick homemade bread. YUM! I like to add lots of interesting flavors to my pesto.

I think pine nuts are a bit expensive for using in pesto where their flavor is mostly covered by the zesty basil. Toasted pecans (I live in the deep South) also work in place of pine nuts.

For some reason that comment is showing up under my name, and, of course, I didn't write it!! Very strange. I will try to post more about herbs, as I do think lots of folks are hungry for more info about them. Dear Commenter– Who are you?
