Hey Pesto!

Pesto is a sauce originating from Northern Italy. It is usually made with basil, pine nuts, garlic, olive oil and grated hard cheese (usually Parmesan). This version is made with chickpeas instead of pine nuts so is a great alternative for people with nut allergies. You can use pesto in lots of recipes; brush it onto fish, mix with pasta or use as a base for vegetable tarts, but you only need a little as it is a strong-tasting sauce.
