This is a great pesto. You can choose any kind of nuts instead of Walnuts. I served it with Pasta it was delicious. I pulsed the ingredients together and it was very tasty. I took basil leaves, slightly roasted walnuts, grated parmigiano-reggiano cheese, extra virgin olive oil, clove of garlic, lemon juice and zest, salt and pepper. I pulsed it all together. Scraped the sides and pulsed it twice to get it mixed well. If you blend it it will be smooth. I didn't want it smooth i wanted little chunky so that I can see the ingredients.
I took warm pasta and topped this pesto on top. Sprinkled more cheese and garnished it with pasley. You can also serve this with nice toasty bread. This pesto stays in the fridge for one week.
