H3 Recipe: Red Pepper Pesto

You've asked for it, so here it is! 

Chef's Note:  This sauce not only is great over chicken (as shown above), beef, fish fillets, served over whole wheat pasta, but you can also serve it as a dip for pita chips.  When preparing a pasta dish, follow these instructions:  precook pasta, add sauce to sauté pan to warm and then toss in pasta and voila!
