sunflower & pumpkin seed basil pesto

With food allergies in our home I wanted to create a pesto that didn't use the traditional pine nut. I was concerned that this might result in a bland mess. I decided to forgo the food processor this time, creating a beautiful Genovese style pesto that has the addition of sunflower and pumpkin seeds. The seeds add a light nutty flavor as well as a complimentary texture to the basil which excites the palate.
