Pesto

Pesto
As I have mentioned earlier on in my blog, sadly, some cheeses aren't vegetarian and since pesto is often used as a garnish for pasta it sometimes has cheeses in, such as Grana Padano and parmesan, which aren't vegetarian. Sadly, there aren't many vegetarian pestos, since most companies think it tastes better with non-vegetarian cheese in, although you can make your own following this recipe at http://glutenfreegoddess.blogspot.co.uk/2008/02/winter-pesto.html or buy zest vegan basil pesto which are both vegetarian.

Updated June 2015:
Recently the well know company Sacla have started creating their own vegetarian pesto. This is much easier to find than 'zest vegan pesto' and it is stocked in many supermarkets.
