Parsley Pesto With Sun-Dried Tomatoes image

Last night, in the mood for something delicious and healthy (in that order), I made pesto using parsley. I always keep parsley in the fridge -it's a staple for me, as are lemons and garlic. I consider these types of ingredients the building blocks of good food; hence, keeping these items in my kitchen is a must! Top your favorite high-protein, gluten-free pasta with this power packed parsley pesto -parsley is considered a superfood- and you have a dish that not only tastes good, it's good for you too! Enjoy.
