Well for a plate of pasta, you will usually use 2-4 tablespoons of pesto. Less if you are using it as the base for a pesto cream sauce. So add weed with an eye to dosage/serving size.

Im planning on making this, but need to know how many people I can make it for with the standard recipe, so that I dont make up a single batch and find out I needed a double.
I think the OP's recipe will make about 2 1/2-3 cups. Allow 1/4 cup per person.
A quarter cup sounds about right... don't forget that pesto makes for FANTASTIC panini.
Some nice thick crusty bread, shredded turkey (none of that slimy deli stuff), provalone cheese and tomato... Toast the bread, add the stuff and broil it open-faced. Smear on some pot-pesto and there you have it :)
