The family loved it. It was simple and quick. Didn't have an issue with the salt and we used half Parmesan and half pecorino Romano. Yummy.

Made as written and enjoyed it very much. Thank you for the recipe.

I always make basil pesto, but I wanted to try something new. This recipe was very easy to make an absolutely delicious, even better than my basil pesto. The only thing I changed was substituting chopped walnuts for pinenuts as I didn’t have any on hand and it still turned out great!
