Ingredients

Servings

Sun-Dried Tomato Pesto:

  • 1 ounce jar sun-dried tomatoes julienne cut, in olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic roughly chopped
  • ¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • ½ cup Parmesan Cheese grated
  • salt sea salt

Sausage Pasta:

  • 1 chicken sausage cooked, sliced, package weight 12-ounce
  • 1 gluten free penne pasta package weight 12-ounce
  • 1-½ cups cherry tomatoes fresh
  • ½ cup basil chopped, fresh
  • salt sea salt, to taste

Instructions

Prepare the Sun-Dried Tomato Pesto:

  1. Add all of the ingredients for the pesto sauce except for the parmesan cheese to a food processor. Process until tomatoes are chopped into small bits. Transfer to a bowl and stir in the parmesan cheese. Add sea salt to taste.

Prepare the Pasta:

  1. Cook the pasta according to package instructions. While pasta is cooking, slice the sausage links into rounds. Heat about 1 to 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a skillet over medium-high and add the sausage rounds. Cook sausage until browned, about 8 to 10 minutes flipping half-way through.
  2. Once pasta and sausage is cooked, transfer both to a large serving bowl and add in the sun-dried tomato pasta sauce, cherry tomatoes, and basil. Toss everything together until well-combined and coated in sauce. Taste for flavor and add sea salt and parmesan cheese to taste.
