Instructions

  1. In a small skillet, toast almond slices over low-medium heat for 2-3 minutes until fragrant and warm. This step adds a depth of flavor, but if you're in a hurry you can skip it.
  2. In a food processor, add almonds, roasted red pepper, garlic, sun-dried tomatoes, parsley, red wine vinegar, and cayenne pepper. Begin to pulse until combined into a coarse crumb.
  3. While the food processor is blending, slowly add olive oil until it is completely combined with the sauce. Add salt and pepper, adjusting to taste. If needed, add additional olive oil. Continue pulsing until the desired consistency is reached. I generally make it it's slightly chunky and not completely smooth, however, you can pulse as long as needed until your desired texture is reached.
  4. Enjoy on a sandwich, with a cheese board, or with grilled meat or paired with eggs (really, so many possibilities!)

Notes

  • Yield: The recipe makes approximately 1 1/2 cups of sauce.
  • Sun-Dried Tomatoes: I usually use sun-dried tomatoes that are packaged in oil but feel free to use dried. You may just need to adjust the addition of olive oil depending on which you use.
  • Storage: Place in an airtight container or jar in the fridge for 4-5 days.
  • Freezing: thaw in individual portions or in a freezer-safe container with room for expansion. Thaw it in the fridge or microwave on defrost. It will keep at least 6 months in the freezer.
