Best O' Pesto Zesto!

Three pesto tips for thought:

1. Replace pricey pinenuts for unsalted sunflower seeds for less than half the price. Or go half and half to still get that piny flavor

2. Substitute asiago for parmesan-- a different flavor to mix it up

3. Go way out there and try this crazy mix: replace...
basil for thai basil and cilantro
parmesan cheese for tahini and soy sauce
pinenuts for sunflower seeds and almonds
olive oil for sesame oil and veggie oil

Spread on fresh slices of pattypan, and voila!
