I love that this pesto is made with peanuts instead of pine nuts. Peanuts are so much more affordable and they add a great flavor to the pesto.

This pesto is a great way to use up leftover cilantro. I always have a bunch of cilantro in my fridge, and this is a great way to use it up before it goes bad.
