When I make vegan pesto, I add olives as a sort of replacement for the parmesan. It needs that extra saltiness.

Really good, but could be even better. Next time I will use only 1 clove of garlic and 5 tbs pine nuts. I didn’t have any sun-dried tomatoes so I used roasted red peppers, which was also good. Either would work well. I will make more next time. This only yeilded 1 1/2 servings. I guess I like a lot on my pasta!

This was very good! I subbed walnuts for the pine nuts. I liked the flavor from the sundried tomatoes - I used three, but they seemed kind of large to me. Had some mixed with cream cheese on my toasted bagel this morning - delicious!

Simply amazing! I used walnuts as well since that is what I had and served it over fresh angel hair pasta. My husband has been asking for it every day since!

I added parmesan and left out the garlic (so that it would last longer in the fridge). Delicious and fresh tasting!

This was amazing! I've never made any type of pesto before, and it turned out delicious! Will definitely be making this again. I didn't follow the recipe exactly (used more tomatoes, less basil) but it seems like a pretty failproof recipe. Thank you so much!

Made this for the Pesto Pasta with Chicken recipe & didn't need to add tomatoes to chicken recipe because they were already in the Pesto. Very good, & quick meal during a busy week.

I really liked this pesto! The addition of the sundried tomatoes gave it a real boost in flavor. I had tried another pesto recipe that called for parmesan cheese and I found it a bit greasy. This one was perfect. I did decrease the garlic to one big clove and that was enough for me.
