This Sundried Tomato Pesto is a lovely variation on traditional pesto, and incorporates sundried, as well as fresh tomatoes, in addition to nuts, garlic, basil, and olive oil. It is a delightful sauce that will transform any dish it accompanies. Serve this pesto just as you would basil pesto, and watch as your taste buds dance in delight.

My Story

Indulge in its rich and vibrant flavors over pasta, spread it generously on a perfectly crisp pizza crust, stir it into soups, blend it into a smooth and creamy hummus, or use it as a spread on your favorite sandwich, elevating it to a whole new level of deliciousness. Let your imagination run wild with the endless possibilities!
