We love to make 3-minute Vegan Sun-Dried Tomato Pesto in bulk. We freeze the sun-dried tomato pesto in little containers to use whenever we fancy. You could even freeze in little zip locked plastic baggies and label. It is best to use your frozen 3-minute Vegan Sun-Dried Tomato Pesto within 3- 4 months and your fresh refrigerated version within 5-7 days.
You are also going to love this 3 minute Vegan Sun-Dried Tomato Pesto as it much cheaper to make homemade then to buy it premade in a jar at the store. You can use either sun-dried tomatoes in a jar preserved in olive oil which is a HUGE time saver or sun- dried tomatoes in a package that you need to rehydrate. If you make your own sundried tomatoes from your garden, even better yet!
We have also kept this 3 minute vegan sun-dried tomato pesto dairy free. We have not added any parmesan cheese. However, you most certainly can if you desire. In addition, we did not add any pine nuts so this recipe is perfectly allergy free and a heck of a lot cheaper as well.
We just loved tossing a little bit of our 3-minute Vegan Sun-Dried Tomato Pesto into our homemade pasta. We add the pasta, the sun-dried tomato and a little of the pasta water into a pan, mix and serve and dinner is served.
We used this 3-minute Vegan Sun-Dried Tomato Pesto as a dipping sauce for our Baked Ricotta Stuffed Zucchini Blossoms. https://www.hwcmagazine.com/recipe/baked-ricotta-stuffed-zucchini-blossoms/
