Hi everyone. I am writing this at 11:18 PM Monday night because our electric is going to be shut off for 6 or 7 hours tomorrow starting in the early morning. Our whole complex will be without power. This is the second time they have done this in the past 4 months. What a pain. So anyway I thought I had better do this now to be sure you have a recipe for the day. This is so easy, and really quick, not to mention very delicious. Even to make it for 1 or 2 people is a cinch. You can just keep the extra pesto for another time. And best of all it only takes a couple of ingredients. Dinner on the table in about 20 minutes.
1 tall jar of Marzetti sun dried tomatoes in olive oil. 1 pint of cherry tomatoes. Parmesan cheese 1/2 cup. Fresh basil.
Use a little over half of the jar of sun dried tomatoes, drained. Put into a blender and add 1/2 cup of olive oil. Cut the tomatoes in half and add to the blender. If too thick add a little more olive oil. Puree. Take out of the blender and put into your large pasta bowl. Stir in the parmesan cheese (1/2) cup. Cook 1 pound of Barilla thick spaghetti, just until Al dente. Drain and add to the pesto mixture. Toss quickly and add 1/2 bunch of fresh chopped basil. Season with some freshly ground black pepper. Toss and serve with parmesan.
Add a salad and some hot Italian bread. Dinner in 20 minutes. Delicious, quick and easy.
Thanks for stopping in today.
Ciao for now
Grayce
