Sun Dried Tomato Pumpkin Seed Pesto 2
Another way to enjoy your Sun Dried Tomato Pumpkin Seed Pesto. Yesterday, we placed it on a tomato slice and made a great appetizer. Today, enjoy the wonderful flavor and health benefits of pumpkin seeds in a main dish! Combined with zucchini noodles and heirloom tomatoes, this dish makes a filling lunch or dinner that will fit beautifully into your raw food menu. If you don’t have heirlooms, any other flavorful tomato will work.
