Olive Pesto

Even though I'm home, I'm actually busier workwise than ever. Something quick and easy is more and more important. It doesn't get much quicker or easier than this.

I mixed this with Ancient Harvest red lentil linguine and topped it with sauteed (canned) mushrooms, (jarred) roasted red peppers, frozen broccoli, and (jarred) sun-dried tomatoes. It doesn't get much more quarantine friendly than that.

Included this in "sides & snacks" because I could totally see spreading this on a cracker.

What I changed:

• Skipped the optional peppercini

• Used nutritional yeast instead of parmesan

• And used Gourmet Garden basil paste instead of fresh basil (fresh? in a quarantine? Are you crazy?!)
