baby spinach and almonds make great pesto
Our spinach is hugely flavorful, with an almost a metallic taste, sorta like rusty iron.
A pesto (we use em mostly as a spread), needs a nice spicey taste.
The lemon, almond/SPINACH combo, doesnt sound appetizing to me.
Im a sucker for any kind of basil, except that "vanilla basil" that was developed in the last coupla years. Too perfumy
