I'm not sure what went wrong, but my pesto turned out really bitter. I think I might have used too much spinach.

I made this pesto last night and it was a bit too garlicky for my taste. I think I'll use less garlic next time.

I was a bit skeptical about this pesto because I'm not a huge fan of spinach, but I was pleasantly surprised. The spinach flavor is subtle and the pesto is really tasty. I'll definitely be making it again.
