BACON, BASIL PESTO, AND TOMATO SANDWICH



Bacon, Basil Pesto, and Tomato Sandwich image

If you're tired of a BLT, try a BBPT. The basil pesto is a wonderful complement to the bacon and tomato on this sandwich. During summer, when you have more basil than you know what to do with, make your own pesto. You can freeze pesto in ice cube trays for a real treat in the winter. And go ahead and pick one of those fresh tomatoes in your garden to slice down for this sandwich.

TOMATO PESTO



Tomato Pesto image

Chef Note: This is a great sauce for pasta salad because it's delicious at room temperature. You could also slather it on bruschetta, grilled fish or chicken. Or make a brunch dish by topping a thick slice of toast with proscuitto, a poached egg and a little of this summer pesto. In summer, when you can get your hands on vine-ripe tomatoes, you don't even need to peel them. To intensify the flavor, you can add a few oven-dried tomatoes. The pesto keeps several days in a tightly sealed container in the refrigerator.

Provided by Michael Chiarello : Food Network

Time 20m

4 cups peeled, seeded, and coarsely chopped tomatoes
5 cloves minced garlic
30 large fresh basil leaves
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon and 1 teaspoon balsamic vinegar
Sea salt, preferably gray salt, and freshly ground black pepper
1 cup freshly grated Parmesan

Steps:

  • Combine the tomatoes, garlic, basil, olive oil, vinegar, and salt and pepper, to taste, in a blender and puree until smooth. Add the cheese and blend briefly just to mix. Transfer to a bowl and adjust the seasoning.

LOW FAT BASIL TOMATO PESTO



Low Fat Basil Tomato Pesto image

This low fat version of pesto is simply wonderful, and it's just bursting with fresh flavor. I really like the flavor of traditional pesto, but the addition of the tomatoes in this recipe really, really goes well with all that lovely fresh basil. This makes just enough pesto for one pound of your favorite cooked pasta. Or use it to top eggs, baked potatoes, fish, spread it on sandwiches, or add as an extra flavoring to soups or rice. The possibilities are endless! I've also made this using part fresh parsley when I didn't have an entire cup of fresh basil on hand.

Provided by Kozmic Blues

Categories     Sauces

Time 10m

Yield 1 cup

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 cup fresh basil leaf, well packed
1 cup chopped tomato
1 clove garlic, minced
1 tablespoon toasted pine nuts
1/2 teaspoon salt, to taste

Steps:

  • To toast pine nuts, spread them on an un-oiled baking sheet and bake in oven at 350 for about 3 to 5 minutes until just slightly deepened in color.
  • Rinse and drain fresh basil leaves.
  • In a blender or food processor, combine basil, tomatoes, garlic, pine nuts and salt, and puree until smooth.
  • Have a rubber spatula handy to scrap down the sides of the blender as you process.
  • Because there is no oil in this recipe, it takes a bit more coaxing to get the mixture smooth.
  • Pesto is great served immediately, but can be refrigerated for 3-4 days.
