    Only with the substitution of vegan Parmesan cheese would this belong in the vegan recipe group. Yes you can freeze small containers of leftover pesto with all ingredients intact - vegan or not - just stir up on thawing.

    I have just made pesto, and am going to freeze it. It is the basil, garlic, parmesan, pine nuts, e.v.oil recipe. Now I see later, it says to add the cheese and nuts at thawing. Does anyone kow if this is going to spoil it?

    I love fresh pesto; I've tried it with pine nuts, walnuts, pecans, almonds, cashews -- parlsey, mixed herbs -- but I never thought of pistachios, and they're my fav. DUH!! Thanks for waking me up, Tigerfish!
