Yup, pignolis and pine nuts are the same thing. They are great toasted in salads and in othe recipes too! I mix toasted pine nuts into baby spinach that I saute with garlic and a sprinkle of lemon juice. Yum yum! They can be expensive, though...

I JUST bought a HUGE container of them from Costco...I use them all the time for salads and of course, Pesto!

Yup, pignoli are pine nuts. I toast them and use them in a mixed green salad with gorgonzola crumbles, golden raisins, and a balsamic vinaigrette dressing. Yum!

I've used something very similar to this .. but think it's made by a different company .. anyway .. it's yummy .. I add it in to ground turkey sauteed in a skillet, then add pasta .. usually pastina.
