I did find a pesto recipe but I didn't have the capacity to try and make it and I figured he'd appreciate it. Is carrot top pesto good? Maybe next time I'll give it a go. -

I've only ever made it once. I also have arugula (rocket) and mustard greens that might make good pesto. I'm also in the process of making some ginger vinegar which might be a good flavor addition. -
Flick 🇬🇧 (flick@spinster.xyz)'s status on Sunday, 17-Sep-2023 20:21:53 JST Flick 🇬🇧 @thatguyoverthere I know @TinyHouse4Life raves about sun-dried tomato pesto. I tend to make it when I get a reduced (because short-dated) bag of $LeafyHerbs, to stretch out the shelf-life.
Rocket makes good pesto, I dare say mustard greens would too.
Oh, and I usually use sunflower seeds, because pine nuts are bloody expensive!

I assumed the sun dried tomatoes were added to basil. Is the tomato taking the place of greens or just being added? -

This is the recipe I used. Although I did skip the pine nuts and I sundried my tomatoes fresh. Then I froze individual 1/4 cups servingsDisinformation Purveyor :verified_think: likes this. -

Came out amazing -
