Mint-Pistachio Pesto

/

Summary: I love mint and pistachios, and really, pesto is of the gods. This is great on steak and slathered on bread! I also think it'd be fantastic with grilled peaches! Per reviews on Food52, this is divine on lamb. Lastly, this is just so darn easy- fantastic!

Note: This was the winner of the Your Best Mint contest on Food52
