Ingredients

Servings
  • 1 cup sun-dried tomato 150 grams, packed, drained and quartered
  • 5 fresh basil leaves
  • 3 almond blanched
  • 1/2 tablespoon pine nuts
  • 1 garlic clove, minced
  • 1/4 cup Parmesan Cheese 25 grams, freshly grated
  • 1/2 teaspoon oregano
  • 1/3-1/2 cup olive oil 75 grams

*start by adding 1/3 cup then more if needed but add 1 tablespoon at a time. (I used 1/2 cup + 1 tablespoon).

  • 2-3 tablespoons olive oil to top the finished pesto before refrigerating

Instructions

  1. In a food processor add drained sun-dried tomatoes, basil, nuts and garlic, blend until chunky, then add the parmesan cheese, oregano and oil, mix until blended to desired consistency. Spoon into a glass jar, top with the extra olive oil and keep refrigerated. Enjoy!

Notes

  • I made Pasta for 3-4 two times and Puff Pastry Puffs (see body of post for how to make) with this recipe. 
  • You may need to add a little more oil when tossing with your favourite pasta.
  • Be sure to cover the top of the pesto with oil before refrigerating.
