Say hello to your new favorite weeknight dinner! This Sun Dried Tomato Pesto Pasta is made with Three Farm Daughters linguine pasta, creamy sun-dried tomato pesto and topped with burrata cheese. It’s a pasta lover’s dream come true! 
This sun dried tomato pesto pasta is the perfect dish for one of those nights when you crave a fresh pasta. It’s easy, made with simple ingredients that you probably already have on hand and ready in less than 30 minutes!
Homemade sun dried tomato pesto is tossed with my new favorite pantry pasta staple – Three Farm Daughters artisan linguine. The brand was founded by three sisters in 2020 with one big vision: bringing better wheat from the fields to your pantry! Their new premium line of pasta is non-GMO, handmade in USA and packed with fiber. One serving has 5x more fiber per serving than traditional pasta! Another great thing about their pasta is that it is nearly impossible to overcook! It’s perfectly al dente in 13 minutes and makes for great leftovers. Their pasta is really amazing! You can shop the pastas here (use code natteats for free shipping) and on Amazon.
SUN DRIED TOMATO PESTO
Sun dried tomato pesto also called a pesto rosso is an Italian red pesto made with sun dried tomatoes. It’s a little sweet, tangy and it is such a fun and delicious twist on a traditional pesto!
HOW TO MAKE SUN DRIED TOMATO PESTO
INGREDIENTS
Sun dried tomatoes – I used dry-packed sun dried tomatoes for this recipe. You can also use oil-packed and just add less olive oil!
Nuts – cashews, pine nuts, almonds and walnuts work best!
Garlic cloves
Extra virgin olive oil
Red pepper flakes
First, toast nuts on a stovetop until golden brown. That brings out all the flavor. Let it cool. In a high speed blender or food processor, place all the ingredients and blend until smooth.
HOW TO MAKE RED PESTO PASTA
Start with cooking the pasta. I used the whole package of Three Farm Daughters Linguine. Reserve some pasta water, it is a key step for the sauce! Then rinse and drain the pasta.
Meanwhile, make the pesto. Place pesto and reserved pasta water in the same pot you cooked the pasta.
Stir together and bring to a simmer. Add pasta and toss using kitchen tongs. Add salt and pepper.
