Cook's Note:
Variations: Use only one kind of nut or mix several. If I don't have pine nuts, I use walnuts and it still tastes fabulous! Don't have quite enough basil? Add some other fresh greens like parsley or cilantro (as long as the majority is basil). Get creative! Add a small handful of sun-dried tomatoes to the mix, yum! Add a 1/2 cup of your favorite cheese.
