Thank you very much for this recipe. My children are allergic to nuts but I really enjoy broadening their pallete with different tastes and educating them on all the foods that contains nuts

I have been waiting for this video I have nut allergy and no one ever does a nut free pesto - this is great! I didn't just get internet but its funny what you chose to search and what you don't!
LOL 😅 Todd... Yes, this recipe is one of my favorites. If you want to add nuts, alternatives to pine nuts are sunflower seeds or walnuts. I like it just simple & plain 😋 Enjoy!
Amazing recipe! I made it and it's very tasty especially on Pasta and since I'm not allergic to any nuts i recommend adding 1 spoon of pine nuts it will taste even better 🍃🎆
Ha, of course pine nuts are authentic & delicious in pesto, especially if they are fresh (not easy to find fresh). Enjoy & thanks for sharing the idea! Be sure to subscribe 😋
Hi Cheryl, Thanks for watching my video. You're going to love this recipe! You may add either lemon or vinegar, beware, the more you add, the more it changes the taste of the pesto. The other option is a vegetable wash bought at the store. I just like the low cost, handy versions to clean my produce 😀 Enjoy and be sure to Subscribe ❤️
I’m so glad someone made a nut free recipe! I’ve been looking for a nut free pesto to try with my veggie pasta and this looks perfect! I am allergic to dairy as well would it taste good still without the cheese? Or with maybe just half a cup of cheese? I can have a little bit of dairy but too much gives me a bad stomach ache. Thank you!
Hi Melissa, I’m glad you are excited about this recipe, it is delicious 😋 Of course you may reduce the cheese. Play with the recipe until you find the best fit for you. The other option is to just lightly sauté’ garlic, salt & chopped basil in a fry pan then toss your pasta in it and serve. Enjoy and be sure to subscribe ❤️

Indeed, you are correct ~ for amazing taste & texture! Perhaps, you could reverse the "parts" & report back with taste & texture. It could be a great alternative 😀 Be sure to subscribe 😋 Enjoy!
No nut pesto is good, I suppose. If you can't find pine nuts and you still want to make the recipe, make w/o the nuts like Mardell, but you can also use sunflower seeds instead of pine nuts which when I last checked was $17.99 per pound. Sunflower seeds is $7.99 a pound and more economical.
Thank you for trying this recipe. Great idea about sunflower seeds as a substitute for pine nuts. As mentioned, for people with nut allergies this recipe helps them enjoy pesto. Also, since seeds are related to tree nuts, caution may be necessary with adding seeds. Thanks for watching my video, be sure to subscribe for more great recipes :)
Looks great and it's great for people with nut allergies, BUT I'm sorry....olive oil, while it's good for anointing, is NOT good for the inners of our temples. (but I'm still going to try this) ; D
Thank you Steve for trying this recipe! It is truly amazing tasting... if you prefer, try a different oil, just not sure it will taste right though... Be sure to Subscribe!
Can you use this pesto for pasta. I'm looking for alternatives to use for pasta that are healthier besides the typical tomato sauce marinara sauce Alfredo sauce etc
Great Question! Since it contains such fresh ingredients, I have found 3 days to be best, but, it can last as long as 5 days. Enjoy! Be sure to Subscribe for more great ideas and recipes.
Absolutely John, what a great idea! Perhaps small containers to allow you to thaw only what you need each time. Thanks for the suggestion. Be sure to subscribe for more great recipes. Enjoy :)

Lenny F great idea Lenny .... that will be a lot of nuts thrown out. Unfortunately, I haven't been able to always pick out each and every nut that doesn't look perfectly fresh. Great idea for those that have the time, money & energy to run back and forth to the store or pick through a bag of nuts one by one 👍😊 thanks for your idea!

I'm sure this pesto is delicious, but please tell me, if I make a larger quantity, how long can I keep it ??? Thanks for the recipe! Sincerely, Mihai from Romania.
Hi Mihai, what a great question. It’s easy, just package the extra basil in small, airtight containers and store in the freezer. Enjoy 😋 Be sure to subscribe ❤️
Hi Steph, Great question! This is why I only use a small amount of acid solution, to prevent the smell/taste ruining the flavor of the basil (recipe). I've found a diluted solution for a short period of time works well to clean but not spoil the taste. Try it and let me know your thoughts 👍 Be sure to subscribe 😋
Hi Vinay, That's a great question. During the video shoot, my director did not catch the mistake and it was not discovered until editing. The decision was made that the video material/recipe was good enough, that we figured people would forgive my slight error in the word "sea" after Himalayan, by mistake. While confusing, it was an innocent error. I apologize. Use any salt that best fits your needs 😀
Hi Mariel, Great question. I've never heard of using anything but Olive Oil for Pesto, but doesn't hurt to try. Personally, I think vegetable oil will change the taste dramatically & Coconut Oil will be thickening and may lessen distribution onto your pasta.... just guessing, but worth a try. Let me know how it goes. Be sure to subscribe 🙏
Hi Bora Deda, yes, you may use a blender, however, it is dense and may be difficult to get out. Use a scraper and you should be fine. Enjoy 😋 and be sure to Subscribe!
This is such a brilliant recipe. I've been looking for a pesto recipe which doesn't contain nuts as I am allergic to nuts. I wanted to ask do we have to put cheese in the pesto or can it be optional and if we do need to put cheese can we use cheddar cheese instead or parmesan cheese.
Mg Goh, I am so pleased you like this recipe. It took a while to perfect it, so, I’m not sure about exchanging the cheese. Honestly, I think cheddar cheese will not work, cheddar works best in a cream sauce. Also, the Parmesan (hard) cheese, hold the basil & garlic mixture together. Therefore, omitting it altogether will not make a pesto, just an olive oil, basil & garlic pasta toss. Feel free to experiment and let me know how it goes 👌
Mardell Hill hi, you can use nutritional yeast, it has some cheesy taste to it and it’s good for you, I’m using it in really strict diet, so I think that you will be fine with it .
Does it matter how thinly grated the parmesan is? My roommate and I purchased a 24 oz bottle of kraft grated parmesan at the store about a week ago and haven't opened it yet. The parmesan in the bottle is almost powder like, so I was wondering if it would still work.
Hi Anya, A fine powder of cheese will make the pesto more dense. The quality of the cheese will also enhance or deduct from the pesto flavor. Try making it with the ingredients you have on hand this time. Then, next time try it with a hand grated block of Parmesan and decide what’s best for you 😋 Be sure to subscribe 💃 and thanks for watching my video!
Yes, you can substitute seeds such as sunflower or pumpkin (papitas) instead of nuts. However, seeds & nuts are in the same family &, while a person may be sensitive to one, another may work find for them. Also, seeds & nuts may become rancid, causing digestive issues... Freezing or toasting reduces the possibility of bad bacteria or mold. Enjoy!
Of course... the blend I used is a combination of Parmesan Cheese and two other hard cheeses. It's just a difference in flavor... no matter what, it will be delicious for you :) Enjoy!
Hi Marites, Usually 3 days is safe in the fridge. If you would like to store it for longer, put some into small containers and store in the freezer. Enjoy 😋 Be sure to subscribe!
Diola Vani I hope you have access to a hard cheese. Mozzarella cheese will melt in the pesto and make is gooey. Not a good idea 😉 With the right cheese or mixture of hard cheeses, it is really delicious! Enjoy 😋
Elsie Garcia, Hi 👋Great idea! I will consider doing a fish batter for a future video 👌 Thanks for watching my video. Enjoy the pesto spread on top of your fish 👍 Be sure to subscribe to see many more healthy food videos 😉
Brian Smith, great question! Pine nuts are absolutely wonderful for those that either like the taste or can tolerate them. Unfortunately, some people have sensitivity to some or all nuts. This pesto is a delicious nut free alternative. However, if you prefer nuts, of any kind, in your pesto, please feel free to add those to this recipe 😊 Enjoy!

So sorry that happened... That's a first.... So many reasons a food may affect you that way, allergies, poor quality ingredients, contamination, etc... Be sure to watch this video to insure your ingredients are clean bit.ly/2DMnaCL For some people, garlic can be a trigger... Oils can be rancid, etc... Feeling brave? Check all ingredients and try again? Be sure to subscribe for other recipes that may be a better fit for your tummy :)
Mardell...let me guess...you're not Italian...That grated parmesean cheese was store bought already grated? Don't use that. There's a chemical they add so the cheese doesn't clump. Buy a wedge and grate it yourself. Add more oil on top of the basil leaves so your machine has enough lubrication to do its work from the beginning.
Thank you for watching my video again! For ease of use in a video, I chose to have the cheese grated in front of me at the local health food store. But, self grating is always an option for everyone. Great contribution. Be sure to subscribe for more great videos :)
What is Himalayan Sea salt? is that even possible? Himalaya is the name of a Mountain range in Asia where i live and there is no Sea in the Himalaya? As far as I am aware of.
Hi Thinley Palden Dorji, thank you for watching my video all the way through. You, in fact, caught an error while in production that my director didn’t catch so we couldn’t retake the scene. Rather than throw out the whole video, we just posted it knowing the recipe itself is amazing, no matter what salt you prefer to use 👍 Thanks for reaching out.

It's easy to make ~ and Enjoy!

sspramita, any blending tool that creams the ingredients together is fine ❤️ Thanks for watching & Be sure to subscribe 😃
I tried this and it was good but it gave me the galloping trots!
So sorry that happened... That's a first.... So many reasons a food may affect you that way, allergies, poor quality ingredients, contamination, etc... Be sure to watch this video to insure your ingredients are clean bit.ly/2DMnaCL For some people, garlic can be a trigger... Oils can be rancid, etc... Feeling brave? Check all ingredients and try again? Be sure to subscribe for other recipes that may be a better fit for your tummy :)
How can I make this dairy free? What do I substitute Parmesan with?
Great Question! Try vegan cheese substitute, here is a recipe: www.loveandlemons.com/vegan-cheese/ Enjoy 😋
Mardell...let me guess...you're not Italian...That grated parmesean cheese was store bought already grated? Don't use that. There's a chemical they add so the cheese doesn't clump. Buy a wedge and grate it yourself. Add more oil on top of the basil leaves so your machine has enough lubrication to do its work from the beginning.
Thank you for watching my video again! For ease of use in a video, I chose to have the cheese grated in front of me at the local health food store. But, self grating is always an option for everyone. Great contribution. Be sure to subscribe for more great videos :)
What is Himalayan Sea salt? is that even possible? Himalaya is the name of a Mountain range in Asia where i live and there is no Sea in the Himalaya? As far as I am aware of.
Hi Thinley Palden Dorji, thank you for watching my video all the way through. You, in fact, caught an error while in production that my director didn’t catch so we couldn’t retake the scene. Rather than throw out the whole video, we just posted it knowing the recipe itself is amazing, no matter what salt you prefer to use 👍
Thanks for reaching out. Enjoy this pesto with whatever salt is your favorite 🙏
Be sure to subscribe for more great recipes 😁 And, have a wonderful day!
Could you use lemon/lime juice instead of vinegar
absolutely, lemon or lime can always be substituted.
Mardell Hill thanks so much for your quick response.... I really appreciate it 👍👍

See previous response... :) Let me know if you have any further question...
Pesto with no pine nuts is NOT pesto. It's a basil paste.
Ok, that's important.

What you did is not PESTO .. But your sauce ... I remind you that the word pesto is registered and refers only to pesto alla genovese
Enjoy your pesto alla genovese! Happy thoughts, happy tummy 😋

It's pronounced 'baz-il' not 'bay-zil'. There is no letter Y in it.
Harold-Sweat-Head thanks for watching my video & paying attention to the details 👍😊
Harold-Sweat-Head no z in it either
It's pronounced ba-sil. I'm Australian and we pronounced it like the English do - ie the correct way.
