Drew, thank you so much for letting me know how you enjoyed the pesto! I am completely with you – not really a fan of the really oily pestos, so this one is great with the brightness from the lemon.

This is the best pesto I have made in a long time. I find the parmesan/pinenut version okay, but kind of bland and heavy. The lemon here add lightness that I don’t usually associate with pesto, and almonds and garlic together are very tasty. I doubled the garlic, but I am sort of a fiend that way.

Hi Jade, I am so happy to hear this was even better than the resto’s version! It sounds super delicious paired with salmon. Yum!

I was just at a restaurant in Canmore, Alberta and ordered almond pesto salmon and LOVED it. So I figured that I could make the pesto myself, and found this recipe! This is DELICIOUS and even better than the restaurants. Thank you for sharing.

Thanks for the feedback, Lynn. Glad to hear you liked it! I agree that you consume so much basil with pesto. I remember picking my plant completely clean… although then it grows back so it is all ok.
