Time 20m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 pound penne pasta
2 bunches fresh basil leaves
1 cup roasted red pepper
¾ cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 cup olive oil
salt and pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot with lightly-salted water to a boil. Stir the penne into the water and return to a boil. Cook until the pasta is mostly tender but still firm to the bite, about 11 minutes; drain. Transfer the drained pasta to a large bowl.
  • Place the basil, red pepper, and Parmesan cheese in the bowl of a food processor; stream the olive oil into the mixture as it blends until smooth. Season with salt and pepper. Drizzle the sauce over the cooked pasta and toss to coat.

This recipe was a disaster! The pesto was bland and the pasta was overcooked.

Very tasty! I used sun-dried tomatoes instead of roasted red peppers and it was still delicious.
