Sun-Dried Tomato Pesto Pasta
Sun-dried tomatoes are chewy, sweet, with an intense concentrated tomato flavor... and they've got a beautiful deep red color, too. They're a powerhouse ingredient because you really don't need many of them to give a dish tons of flavor.
One of the secrets to this dish is using the actual oil that the sun-dried tomatoes are packed in - it already has so much great, rich tomato flavor. Just blend it with some garlic, a generous amount of fresh basil, salt and pepper to taste, and Parmesan cheese to create a rich and deeply flavorful pesto.
This is also a dish that's great served warm, or cold the next day. And the best part? It's so easy, and the only thing you need to really cook are the noodles themselves.
