While Basil pesto is the commonly known pesto, there are others to try. Anything green:
Spinach pesto, Mint,Cilantro pesto- my favorite! I use it in stuffed tomatoes.
And, it can be frozen!
Here is a recipe for Mint Pesto- great with lamb kebobs!

1 cup (packed) fresh mint leaves
1/2 cup (packed) fresh cilantro leaves

2 tablespoons freshly grated Parmesan cheese
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
