0 Comments

 
If you need to use up some really ripe tomatoes, just cube them and mix one teaspoon of Pesto in. Let sit for 20 min and use it as a Bruchetta mix on lightly toasted baguette brushed with olive oil. So easy, so quick and totally yummy!

Homefries with Pesto

2/17/2013

0 Comments

 
Prepare you home-fries the way you usually do and add 1 to 2 teaspoons of SUNSHINE FARM Pesto to the frying pan right  when you start frying them. Not recommended for deep fryers!!!!
The Pesto will  give you lots of additional flavour but also prevents the potatoes from sticking together.
Once finished and served on a plate, we enjoy freshly ground black pepper and lots of Parmesan on top.

Gnocchi with Pesto

4/24/2012

My all time  favorite

Ingredients for two  persons:

2 package of gnocchi,
2-3 tbsp. SUNSHINE FARM Pesto,
Freshly ground  parmesan
 
Heat water in a large pot to a  boil, add gnocchi, reduce heat. Fresh gnocchi are best but dried ones from the store work 
as well, they need only 3 minutes more cooking time until gnocchi float to the top
and are done soft but not mushy.

Drain, add pesto to pasta, mix
well. Serve and sprinkle with parmesan as much as you like. For me, the more the
better.
Check out the comment, Maggie Baker was so kind to include her Gnocchi- from-scratch recipe. It is worth making them from scratch!

Ingredients:

1 side of salmon or 2 large  pieces of salmon, skin on,
