Delicious Pesto!!! I Will definitely use this recipe anytime I need pesto!!
This is absolutely delish!! Thanks Ree!!
Good stuff, making it also, without the cheese so we can freeze it
Sooooo yummy, especially with all the fresh basil from the garden this time of year. Thanks Ree we love all of your recipes !!
Confused! Written recipe is very different from the video above it. Which one is right?
I definitely would double it, so yummy. I squeezed in a little fresh lemon and it added just the right amount of zip to it!
This is THE BEST pesto I have ever had. I doubled the recipe and am so glad that I did! I could have eaten the entire thing with a spoon, it was so good! Love your recipes!
