If you have a food processor and 15 minutes you can make your own pesto. It will be a lot fresher and A LOT cheaper. (The same thing is true for hummus). If you grow your own basil or get it from a Farmer's market it will be even cheaper.

I disagree about the cheaper bit (tho I'm a huge advocate of making your own)
I can buy a jar for $4.99 in my grocery store.
It costs me $3.99 just for pine nuts - nevermind the "other" ingredients necessary.

Well if depends on where you live and shop obviously but you should be able to make a larger quantity of pesto with a $3.99 bag of nuts than you will be getting with in a $4.99 container of store-bought.

The bag I bought equated to about 1/2 cup of pine nuts. Which equates to about 1ish cups of pesto with my recipe.
Still well worth the price to make it fresh though.
