I made mine pretty much traditional as I only had the basil from my garden on hand. Its the one thing that seems to grow well for me. I had to double the recipe i had so much basil. I also do use pine nuts because well, it's traditional. *** Update: i was curious to add cilantro and mint so a went ahead with a portion and did. Fantastic flavor. will keep doing it.

Hi Sam give my regads to chickpea. She's so cute God bless her!. Those lovely eyes!

I have a dog too a pomeranian but he doesn't obey in the least and to tell the truth I never thought to train him. I think it's cruelty! and to crown it all he is getting hard of hearing no wonder. He is 15 next Feb.
I found him when returning homefrom a dog sanctuary where I used to do some jobs there. He was running about criss crossing in front of my car watching me and keeping ahead of me as if telling me to stop.
I did that opened all car doors and pretended I was leaving. Suddenly he came back and jumped up on the passenger seat. End of story. This was about 16 years ago and never left me alone. I am retired and so we are always together at home. Me and him.

In reply to kathy Sturr. Yes totally. I use my Blendtec almost daily, and now I use this food processor almost daily as well. I think anyone who loves to cook deserves nice cooking tools :)

In reply to Bethery. I love it! Cilantro is one of my favourite flavours as well. :D

YUM! Pesto is absolutely the ONE thing I make every year from my garden. It is a MUST. These look delicious. The food processor looks awesome, too. Being Vegan I would justify such expenditure because food processors and/or super blenders get used almost daily.

I adore pesto. I found if I made pesto with cilantro, which my husband hates, I can have cilantro flavor on enchiladas, burritos, tacos, whatever. Otherwise, a bunch of cilantro goes bad in the fridge.

Great ideas!

In reply to mOm. I love pesto! I just don't like when it's too oily. All the herbs are awesome. Maybe you will like different herbs more than traditional basil. For onions, caramelize them! They freeze great and you can use them on everything for instant va-va-voom! :)

Never been a huge fan of pesto. But, I too have a millions herbs in my garden, so I'm gonna try mixing them up a bit. Any suggestions for a something with a number of different onions just coming on in my garden? My Cuisinart blender lost a big piece of metal from the blade into my soup. Better get a Breville!
