Honestly, I really never liked pesto. However, now that I am tasting things so clearly (as a vegan), I LOVE the stuff! Here's my new, favorite Presto Pesto!

This pesto is a bit too oily for my taste. I think I'll use less olive oil next time.

I love the addition of the arugula in this pesto. It gives it a nice peppery flavor.

I was surprised at how easy this pesto was to make. I didn't have any pine nuts on hand, so I used walnuts instead, and it turned out great.

This pesto is amazing! I love that it's vegan and still so flavorful. I used it on pasta, but I think it would also be great on sandwiches, pizzas, or even just as a dip for vegetables.
