Where to Buy nut-free pesto?

[Spainintherain]

My child loves pesto sauce on pasta snd I want to send her to school with some next week. I have tried making her nut-free recipes as she doesn't like mine. So are there any ready made I can buy please?

Jamie Oliver has a kale and spinach pesto which is nut free, my children love it

Make it without nuts? Rocket & spinach pesto with garlic, cheese?

Just make it .. very simple

Oil basil garlic Parmesan

Sorry I don't understand how she doesn't like your homemade one .. have you tried different recipes ?? 🤣

Pine nuts aren't nuts.

There are definitely some in the supermarket as I buy them for ds. I think, from the top of my head, Tesco finest one and Sainsbury lemon one. But check the ingredients obviously.

It’s she allergic to nuts? If not, why do you need to make it without nuts?

Pine nuts are seeds and not nuts, I think so I don’t exclude those.

Aldi sell one with pine nuts only (not nuts). Some pesto also contain cashew nuts. Their red one definitely ok. Can't promise about the green one.

Pine nuts aren't nuts.

Exactly. They’re seeds, like sunflower seeds.

My husband can't have nuts but pine nuts are seeds.
Some pre made pesto uses cashew nuts but some don't.
I've just bought some from asda that doesn't have nuts in, just normal range.

Not sure why everyone is banging on that pine nuts aren't nuts.

No they aren't ... but cashew nuts are and that is what most manufacturers now use.

I had this issue op as my DD is allergic to nuts but now we have found a good one. Tesco do a small fresh tub of pesto - find it in the chiller where the fresh pasta etc is. Completely nut free 😊

I googled and found one on Amazon, Good Deli is the brand.

Thank you for the two nut free recommendations! Thank you x million!

I have a nut allergy and just get one from Asda, can’t remember the brand.

Pine nuts aren't nuts.

And yet I am allergic to nuts and have reacted to pine nuts in the past, so maybe it’s a cross contamination thing.

Pine nuts are tree nuts!

Many schools don't allow any products containing nuts onsite because of allergies among other students.

dd and I both have nut allergy. There’s a genevose one in sainsburys and that is cashew nut free.
asda also do they’re extra special one as cashew nut free.

most fresh pesto is nut free too.

I get frustrated at restaurants calling pine nuts, nuts. The other day they wouldn’t serve me something as it had pine nuts in.

THEYRE SEEDs!!!!!!!!
