So delicious with very little effort. I did not need to add any olive oil (this may depend on the consistency of your pesto), but I did add a splash of sesame seed oil and also some freshly-squeezed lemon juice. I served it with a drizzle olive oil on top and sprinkled with ground sumac. Everyone really enjoyed this.

This was so quick to assemble I was afraid it wouldn't have the flavor to match. I was wrong to worry - it was fantastic! As others have suggested, I added 1/4 cup oil for a smoother consistency and I highly recommend sesame oil if you have it. It replaces the flavor of Tahini found in traditional hummus. I think adding lemon juice as rosslare suggested is a great idea and gives a little more brightness. I will be making this A LOT this summer! Thanks!
