Excellent! I followed the recipe, using 3 cups packed spinach, and ended up with about 1.5 cups of concentrated pesto. I was skeptical about it not having salt but I didn't miss it. So far I've had it with spaghetti (about 1 T per bowl) and parmesan, and on crackers with cream cheese and sundried tomatoes. I'll probably freeze the rest. This is a wonderfully economical recipe tastes as good as (and is even healthier than) fresh basil pesto.
