basil can get that brown, but I’m not aware of a variety that has serrated leaves like the plant on the left, and purple basil has much more oval leaves than the plant on the right. the short plants are too low-res to decipher for sure but are, I hope, cilantro.

Using cilantro to make pesto certainly sounds like a recipe for cereal for dinner 😅
