            I made this pesto for our visitors on Sunday, very nice, although I did put extra lemon juice in because it tends to go brown easily. I also used cashews as that's all I had in my cupboard. tmrc_emoticons.)

    Really delicious. Used cashews instead of pine nuts and worked well. Good time to make because of all basil in garden.

    Yum. I will use this recipe to use up all my basil growing in my garden!

    Made this but removed the chilli and replaced the basil with mint and the pine nuts with slivered almonds. I mushed it onto loin chops and grilled, Devine. Next time I wouldn't use as much Parmesan, oh and I didn't add the lemon juice.
