This is a great recipe that can be used many ways, enjoy it served on cucumber rounds, add it to whipped cream cheese for a great spread on crackers or bruschetta, or top grilled polenta or pasta with this pesto. However, you choose to enjoy this Pesto, I know you will enjoy it.
1 – 16 Oz Jar Sun-dried tomatoes packed in oil
2 Cups Chives Chopped
2 Cups parsley leaves, chopped
½ cup pine nuts
2 cloves garlic
2 Tbsp Fresh Lemon Juice
Extra Virgin Olive Oil, if needed.
Drain oil from the tomatoes and reserve. Combine tomatoes, chives parsley, pine nuts, garlic, and lemon juice in the bowl of a food processor. Pulse until finely chopped.
