Frankly, I prefer the flavor of pine nuts to almonds.  You could
substitute one for the other, especially if you are grinding them to a
powder, toasted pine nuts and blanched slivered almonds have
approximately the same texture, but unless you overpower the flavor of
the nuts, you can taste the difference.
