recipe:

packet of sundried tomatoes in olive oil
handful of pine nuts
handful of macadamia nuts
wad of cilantro (aka what you´re not throwing in the chicken soup)
yerbabuena (nice handful)
wad of swiss chard
salinerito parmesean cheese -- lots
half a head of garlic, peeled
half a bottle, at least, of olive oil to emulsify
blender

half works for 6 ppl

I used orichette (sp) as the pasta and some already cooked chicken breast (hence the soup), onions, garlic, mushrooms and red chili flakes as part of the eventual sauce mixture, tossed w/ the pasta. big hit.

delish! i made a similar pesto recently using the sundried tomatoes from United meat market (spices and all), along with roasted peppers, pine nuts, garlic, & cheese. I didn't add any olive oil since united packs their tomatoes with plenty. it was yummy.
