Roasted Red Pepper Pesto
  1. Toast pine nuts - Add the pine nuts in a single layer to a dry skillet and turn the heat to medium-low. Do not overcrowd the pan. Cook the pine nuts and stir occasionally to toast both sides of the nuts. Keep a close eye to ensure the pine nuts do not burn. Cook until golden and toasted, about 3 minutes. Transfer to a plate in a single layer to cool. This will also stop the pine nuts from further cooking or burning.

  2. Blend cheese, pine nuts, and garlic - Add in cheese, pine nuts, and garlic to the processor container. Pulse until the mixture is well-blended and forms a sandy texture, about 30 seconds.

  3. Add roasted red peppers and basil - Add roasted red peppers and basil to the container and blend. Stream in olive oil while blending, then season with salt to taste. Enjoy immediately or store in an airtight container and refrigerate.
