[email protected]I'm not a fan of arugula, so I wasn't sure if I would like this pesto. But I was pleasantly surprised! The flavor is really nice.

Hott Neeky
[email protected]This recipe was a disaster! The pesto turned out grainy and bitter. I'm not sure what I did wrong.
Michael McCauley
[email protected]I found the flavor of this pesto to be a bit bland. I added some extra garlic and red pepper flakes to give it more of a kick.
Asif Malik
[email protected]This pesto is a bit too oily for my taste. I'm going to try using less olive oil next time.

[email protected]I didn't have any Parmesan cheese on hand, so I used a blend of Romano and Asiago cheeses instead. It was still delicious!

[email protected]I'm allergic to nuts, so I substituted sunflower seeds for the walnuts. It turned out great! I couldn't tell the difference.

[email protected]This pesto is a great way to use up leftover arugula. I always have a bunch of it in my fridge and this is a delicious way to use it up.

[email protected]I love that this recipe uses arugula instead of basil. It gives the pesto a peppery flavor that I really enjoy.
Tsavalias Ted
[email protected]This faux pesto is a lifesaver when I'm craving pesto but don't have any basil on hand. The arugula and walnuts give it a unique flavor that's just as delicious as the traditional version.
