I'm a big fan of pesto, and this eggplant pesto is one of my favorites. I love the smoky flavor of the roasted eggplant. I also like to add a little bit of red pepper flakes to give it a little kick.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover eggplant. I had some roasted eggplant in the fridge, and I was looking for a creative way to use it. This pesto was the perfect solution!

I'm allergic to pine nuts, so I used walnuts in the pesto instead. It was still really delicious!

This recipe was a bit too smoky for my taste. I think I roasted the eggplant for too long. Next time, I'll try roasting it for a shorter amount of time.

I've made this recipe several times now, and it's always a crowd-pleaser. The roasted eggplant adds a lovely smoky flavor, and the basil and pine nuts give it a classic pesto taste. I like to add a little extra garlic and Parmesan cheese to taste.
