Pistachio Pesto

I’ve been working on a good pesto for a while and I think this one hits the nail on the head. Typically pesto has parmesan so I had to find a replacement that could give it a nutty flavor paired with the garlic and herbs. This is what I came up with. Just to note, I don’t digest garlic very well so I use it sparingly. If you are a garlic lover, by all means add more. I paired the shrimp with my monster noodles and some roasted tomatoes I stuck in the oven till they wilted a bit. Sure was tasty.
