What's the recipe, if you don't mind sharing? I haven't really tried pesto many times, and when I did they didn't turn out well

I say "my recipe" but I got it from here: https://www.forkintheroad.co/vegan-spinach-pesto/#recipe

I use sunflower seeds instead of pine nuts because I'm not a millionaire. I have made it with a blend of spinach and basil before as well. Spinach is cheaper unless you grow basil or something.

We are growing sunflowers this year so that's perfect. Also spinach. Also basil. I should learn how to make pesto

Imo homemade is better. This makes enough for 2 lbs of pasta and I found it freezes very well so we got 2 while meals out of it last time I made it.
