List of Ingredients




1 jalapeno pepper, seeded
1/3 cup sunflower seeds, toasted
1 1/2 cups cilantro
1 1/2 cups parsley
2-3 cloves garlic
1/4 cup parmesan cheese, fresh grated
1/2 tsp salt
6 T olive oil

In a food processor or blender, add jalapeno, sunflower seeds, cilantro, garlic, parsley, salt, and 3 T olive oil. Process until roughly chopped. Add parmesan cheese and remaining olive oil until ingredients are mixed. Do not overmix.

Cook pasta and mix with pesto, roughly 1 T pesto per 2 cups pasta. Top with fresh grated parmesan cheese. Serve with italian sausage braised with red wine vingar (2 T) and onions (1/4 cup).

Pesto can be stored in refrigerator, top with 1 T olive oil to prevent pesto from turning dark in color.
