...You're welcome, Marbel. Glad to be of help.<br /><br />This may be an old post, but it is - by far - my most popular one.<br /><br />Thank you for the idea of a pesto pizza.

One of my kids is on an elimination diet that excludes garlic (among many other things) and we're trying to figure out how to do pesto pizza (now that we've got the gluten-free crust figured out!). All pestos I've seen contain garlic, and fresh basil is nowhere to be found right now. But dried basil is doable!

When I tried to make mine I only have sunflower seeds at home and that was what I used. It turned out quite well. I guess then you could try substituting pine nut with pistachio which is cheaper than pine nuts or use pumpkin or sunflower seeds.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2504292449265606890.post-27278514238883249862012-12-15T14:09:30.103-08:002012-12-15T14:09:30.103-08:00I am planning on trying this recipe!
