Pesto is a thick sauce or paste made from basil, pine nuts and garlic with olive oil. It's really easy to make and good on sandwiches, pasta, or as a garnish with meat or a dip for veggies. It might be a bit strong with just toast but that's up to you. Here is a simple pesto recipe or you can buy it at the store -
1 bunch fresh basil leaves
1/2 cup toasted pine nuts
1/2 cup grated parmesan
1/2 cup olive oil
1 clove garlic
1 lemon
Add basil leaves, pine nuts, parmesan, juice from lemon and 1/2 cup olive oil with 2 tbsp salt and fresh ground black pepper to a blender or food processor. Mix until consistency becomes smooth.
This is one of my favorite recipes with pesto, which is spaghetti with fresh spring vegetables:

pesto isn't vegan, it has parmesan cheese in it. you can buy small jars of vegan friendly pesto though.
An Italian dark green sauce for pasta originating in Genoa. It’s made from pine nuts blended with fresh basil, parmesan or pecorino cheese, garlic and olive oil. Red pesto is made similarly but with either sun-dried tomatoes, grilled red peppers or pimiento. It’s uncooked and can be bought preserved in jars or fresh in tubs.
a thick sauce typically served with pasta; contains crushed basil leaves and garlic and pine nuts and Parmesan cheese in olive oil and yes you can use it on your toast it will just be like garlic bread but in this case pesto bread... very healthy actually... :) use a crusty bread and it will taste even better...
I've had it on toasted bread but with other fillings in a toasted sandy. I've had it one pizza and pasta. It's best if you heat it rather than put it cold on bread- put in on your bread then grill it and it'll be nicer.
Can I just say that vegan pesto with cashew nuts is something that is so good I eat it even though I am allergic to cashew nuts. I just take the pain.
Pesto is a paste made from basil, pine nuts, olive oil and a little garlic. You can put it on toast if you want, its a free world after all but it is much better on pasta.
smells amazing, tastes of like nothing. Probably wouldn't be great on toast, but whatever - crack at!
I think it might be better suited liberally applied to alleviate friction rubs/sores than to spread it on yer toast
Pesto is a spanish sauce that you normally put on pasta.
It's rather herby and green.
Ive never heard anyone put it on toast.
BUT GO AHEAD(:
It is delicious on toast, but more a lunch food than a breakfast food.
Yes why not.
i wouldnt!
