    This is the first time I have made pesto and it was really quite easy. I used basil from my pot outside and it turned out just right. The flavor was very good. Thanks for posting.

    Thank you! This is a very good recipe for pesto. I served this over linguine for a light starter to our evening meal. My husband asked me to make it after receiving this appetizer at a ***** star restaurant. This is every bit as good as what we had out. Recommended!

    I made 2 different kinds of pesto today, and I have to say that I really enjoyed the mint and basil. Such a nice, fresh combination. This is such a versatile recipe, and I'll be making this one again to freeze. Thanks for sharing your recipe.
