Bocconcini and sundried tomato pasta

So good.

Cook penne (or another pasta you like) until al dente. Add sun dried tomato pesto, bocconcini pearls (the tiny little bocconcini balls), and fresh basil or chopped parsley. Mix together gently, drizzle some lemon juice on top and serve.

Sun dried Tomato Pesto

Using a blender or food processor, blend a jar of sun dried tomatoes and the oil they were packed in until fairly smooth. Add toasted hazlenuts or pinenuts if you want. If you don't have a blender, you can chop the tomatoes with a knife.
