Pop the basil, garlic, red wine vinegar, lemon juice, salt and half of the walnuts into a blender and pulse into finely chopped. Slowly pour in the olive oil while the blender is running, then transfer to a large bowl. 

Chop the broccoli florets into pieces, add to the bowl with the pesto, and mix to combine. Add the sliced apple and remaining walnuts and stir.
