I made this today and it was GREAT. I didn't have pine nuts, so I used walnuts instead. It's so simple to put together and tastes like it came from a gourmet restaurant. It definately isn't missing a thing, but if you insist on a parmesan style mix-in, nutritional yeast would work great, although I think it's perfect the way it is. I served it tossed with fettucini and slices of a homemade "French Baguette" (from this site). Also, it says it takes 30 minutes, but I had it made in less than 10 minutes.

Yum, the addition of sun-dried tomatoes makes for a very good pesto! I'm not vegan, so I used this pesto on pasta with added parmesan. I also added the zest and juice of a lemon (I like the taste of lemon with pesto). Thanks for the recipe!

This is also very good with walnuts instead of pine nuts - they blend really well with the rest of the flavors

My family and I loved this recipe. The sun-dried tomatoes make this a unique and distinctive pesto. Plus, it's vegan!

Everyone loved this! Pesto is just so good, but the tomatoes made it even better. Did half pine nuts and half walnuts and just guessed at my measurements on the basil and tomatoes. It's a forgiving recipe (as long as you come somewhere close to the requested amounts); made a great spread for my herb bread.

Yesterday was my first day trying out the vegan diet. I choose this recipe and love being a vegan thus far! I added a bit of parsley and used walnuts instead of pine nuts. It was delish! I will try to use roasted garlic next time, so the garlic breath doesn't last forever...

I've been looking for a vegan pesto and this one is great. We all really enjoyed it. The only thing it needed was more salt and some freshly ground pepper.

I used raw almonds instead of pine nuts and toasted them. I did sprinkle a about a tablespoon of parmesean cheese in the end and squeezed some lemon juice on top.
