Sun Dried Tomato Spinach Pesto + Blendtec Giveaway
I pulled off the remaining leaves from my three basil plants the other day.
It has gotten quite cool here (loving that!), so I didn’t think the plants would be around much longer.
We are dipping down to around 40 degrees at night lately.
I had just purchased a big container of sun dried tomatoes as well as a box of organic baby spinach so I decided to whip up a batch of Sun Dried Tomato Spinach Pesto sauce using those ingredients and the last of the basil.
Pesto is such a fun accent to many recipes and meals.
Unfortunately, I am allergic to pine nuts which are a traditional component to pesto sauce recipes.
I have resigned myself to making pesto at home a few times a year since I am unable to enjoy it most of the time when we go out to eat.
I have to say, I’m a big fan of this recipe for Sun Dried Tomato Spinach Pesto.
It is so useful in the kitchen. Just take a look at all the fun ways you can use pesto.
5 Easy Ways to use Pesto:
1. As a sandwich spread.
Pesto is a great way to dress up a sandwich and give it a little something special.
2. In place of pizza sauce for an exciting pizza recipe.
Pizza sauce doesn’t always have to be a basic tomato sauce.
3. As a spread or dip for a rustic Italian bread.
Consider adding roasted vegetables and a sprinkling of cheese on top of the pesto topped bread for a delicious appetizer.
4. Add a dollop to a bowl of soup.
This is perfect in the winter months when you’d like a little something leftover from summer added for extra flavor.
Freeze pesto in ice cube trays and drop one frozen cube in the center of a hot bowl of soup.
This also helps cool too-hot soup off!
5. Toss it with pasta for a quick meal.
If you have more time, add grilled or sauteed vegetables and/or your favorite source of protien.
Grilled chicken with pesto and pasta is awesome!
Today I am so excited to partner with Blendtec to be able to giveaway the same blender that I purchased several months ago to one GoodLife Eats reader, plus you will also get their handy Twister Jar.
I have raved about my Blendtec Blender before.
I love how powerful it is and how it doesn’t leave chunks in my smoothies.
Plus, it looks attractive on the counter!
Make sure you scroll down to see the giveaway rules.
Sun Dried Tomato Spinach Pesto
Total Time: 5 minutes

Ingredients:
1/4 cup olive oil
1/2 teaspoon lemon juice
3 cloves garlic
3 ounce baby spinach leaves
1 ounce fresh basil leaves
1/4 cup walnuts or shelled sunflower seeds
3 tablespoons fresh parmesan or romano cheese, grated
1/2 cup sun-dried tomatoes (drained if packed in oil)
1/4 - 1/2 teaspoon salt, or to taste
Directions:
Add oil, lemon juice, garlic, spinach and basil to jar and push basil down into oil and secure lid. Press "Pulse" 6-8 times until basil is roughly chopped.
Add the remaining ingredients in order listed and secure lid. Press "Pulse" 4-6 times until purée texture is reached.
If using the Twister Jar, simply add ingredients and twist the lid counter-clockwise while the blend cycle is running. This twisting motion forces the ingredients from the sides of the jar back into the blade, achieving a perfect blend every time.
Pesto will keep covered in refrigerator up to 3 days. For long-term storage, freeze in small portions using an ice cube tray and transfer the frozen portions to a freezer safe zip top bag.

Love the wild side designer blender! Wow wow wow!
I subscribe too:)
I need to go with the Designer Series WildSide – what a beautiful blender!
They have so many delicious sounding recipes on the site – I’d love to try some new sauces and who knew you could make bread with a blender?
I’ve always dreamed about getting a Blendtec! The feature I like the most is their power!
I subscribe to Good Life Eats via RSS feed.
Oh man! I would love a Blendtec blender! I make smoothies almost daily (in a cheapo blender that smells like it’s burning every time I use it), and love the durability I have heard that Blendtec provides so that I can make other things in my blender such as nut butters, pesto, dressings, milkshakes, frozen beverages, etc. with ease!
I’d go with the Designer Series WildSide– it looks gorgeous (and easy to clean too)!!
I love pesto sauce and like playing around with different greens and nuts! I pinned this (and started following you on Pinterest!) so that I can try it later!

Love this! I commented on Blentec here, shared the offer on FB, Liked Good Eats & Blendtec on FB subscribed to RSS feed and pinned the pesto recipie and also pinned & followed Good Eats blog on pinterest. I think I’m covered. Thank you! You are a talented lady!!
I love my Blentec and so does my daughter in college. She calls and asks how do I do this or that without a Blentec 🙂 I would love a Designer Series Wildside and then I could graciously give her my Classic Wildside. One of my favorite features is I grind my wheat in it. It does pit the jar, but I have two. So one looks brand new and I got rid of my big, bulky grinder.
I love that BlendTec blenders are so powerful! Those old “will it blend?” videos are hilarious.
I think the automatic blend cycles are a brilliant feature.
I subscribe to your RSS feed.
I like the smart touch technology! So easy and perfect!
I like the Designer Series WildSide. It looks so sleek and modern. Nice!

I’ve been eyeing the BlendTec Designer Wildside blender for many months, and have to admit that the “Will it Blend” videos have definitely sucked me in. I struggle with a blender that’s not quite powerful enough to make a proper pesto, and a food processor that starts to smell like it’s burning when I make nut butters…and I keep thinking that a BlendTec is the answer, so I’d love to win!

I would happily take any of the blendtec blenders! The shape of their jars/capacity/the fact they are BPA free-all great. I love their power-I tried out my mom’s the last time I visited her and it just ran so smoothly and quietly despite what was happening in the jar:) I also love that they provide so many recipes on their site.

I definitely want the Total Blender Classic WildSide! Why? Partially because the name is exciting and has me sold, but more so because I want to start blending on a daily basis. Smoothies to incorporate my daily servings of veggies and fruits. On a side note, I was just talking to some of the girls in my office yesterday about how there were a web series a couple years ago where they would take an industrial blender and blend everything from old school iPods to other electronics. Not proposing this but I thought it was a fun coincidence 🙂

Reading about Blendtec has inspired me to do some serious blending! I’m drooling over their powerful motor. Now I just need a blender… 🙂
I love using blendtec. I love being able to make hummus and dressing
As a recent college graduate, I love spending time in the kitchen, unlike I was able to during college. I love learning new cooking techniques and recipes, and this blog has given me some serious kitchen inspiration! The Blendtec blender would be a great tool with which to continue to broaden the scope of my cooking abilities. I would love the opportunity to work with a Blendtec blender, especially because of it’s versatility in the kitchen. After reading about the blender on the Blendtec website, the question is, “What can this blender not do?”
The wild side Designer blender looks absolutely amazing!

I love that the Blentec pulls the contents down instead of pushing it up so you might not need to use the lid every time.

I have looked at these blenders before and loved them but couldn’t afford to spend that much. I was trying to find something for my grandmother who is fighting colon cancer and is expierencing all the side effects of chemo, the big one being she has trouble swallowing. I thought that the perfect thing for her would be soups and smoothies. I like that you blend the entire fruit or vegetable that way you are getting all the nutrients. I also like the BPA free pitcher.

This might not qualify as a feature, but I really appreciate that it is manufactured in the USA. I realize parts not be all me here, but that’s okay with me as long as it’s not completely outsourced. Another thing I love is the 7 yr warranty.
I love the ability for it to crush ice to “snow” – I have never had a blender that can do that, and it sounds awesome!

My friend Mary has Estrogen Positive Breast Cancer. To properly be treated and heal from this she has a special diet of about 35 things she can eat. My friend Jolene has helped me prepare all of Mary’s food since she was diagnosed and given this special diet. About once a week Jolene and I create amazing food using my Blendtec blender and put it in Mary’s freezer. We are becoming specialists at this diet. I LOVE my Blendtec because we can make rye bread using sprouted berries, pumpkin quiches, berry syrup, rice and lentil pancakes and a myriad of other wholesome entree’s and sides. Every time she works in my kitchen Jolene tells me how much she wants one of these awesome machines. If I win I will give Jolene the new one but I do believe I will keep the twister jar for myself! I couldn’t do it without her!
I love that this blender is so powerful. I love thick smoothies and I have burned through many blenders due to to much frozen fruit. This will save me the headache and money from having to continue to replace blenders.
I already follow you on Pinterest.
Love that it is so versatile and powerful. It won’t have the burning motor smell that I get on my current blender when making smoothies!
Wow! It’s so nice to see a pesto recipe that doesn’t inclue pine nuts. I’m excited to try it! (I am also allergic).
As far as features go, I would LOVE a lump free smoothy! I also use my blender for my canning recipies so it would be nice to have one that can keep up with me. The ice to snow option also looks awesome. I know one 5 year old that would love some homemade snow cones!

Total Blender Classic Wild Side….looks like it has everything I need!!!

The feature I love is that the blender speed will adjust itself that would be grast
They all look very appealing but I think I’d go with the designer series wildside. I love that some of them are wider at the bottom; my current blender is very narrow and it’s difficult to get thick sauces out of it.
I like this one Total Blender Classic Combo
I would most like the ability to make various drinks. I have a juicer but it will not make smoothies and definitely not cappuccinos!

I subscribe to your feed as well! Thank you so much as my current blender is on its last blade and ready to meet Goodwill! LOL 🙂
I would definitely choose the designer series wildside! So sleek and beautiful. I love the pictures for the different settings rather than the words on the other models. I pinned this on Pintrest, liked in on facebook and already subscribe to emails! Absolutely LOVE blendtec! Thank you so much for this giveaway! The pesto sounds DELISH!
Ice-crushing guarantee! Awesome.
A feature I like is the new air-flow design that keeps the blender motor cooler. It will last longer that way! Thank you for the wonderful giveaway!

All of them! But my favorite feature is the way it speeds up and slows down perfectly to ensure recipes turn out!
The automatic blend cycles seem handy. I also like that the jar is BPA free.
My favorite features of the blendtec are the power and durability.
I absolutely am in love with the Red Model as it matches my kitchen perfectly! I love how simple the digital display is with an auto shut-off feature and how easy it is to clean too!

Wow….this looks amazing! The fact that it has the “Smart Touch Tec-nology” that will do most of the work for me sounds perfect. And the illuminated touch area….don’t get me started. Would love to own one.

I love the Total Blender Classic WildSide blender! I make smoothies daily and this would be awesome to have a smoothie specific Blender!
The features that I like the best are that it blends so thoroughly, that it can be used to make flour, and that clean-up is so easy. Sounds like an amazing tool for the kitchen. winterwrens at gmail dot com
I like that it has an almost 3 quart capacity!

i love that it automatically shuts off when it beleves it is complete for perfection!
A feature that appeals to me how powerful these blenders are!! I have a VERY old blender that doesn’t even get the job done anymore, it’s so weak. The power of these makes blending happen so fast!

All of these models are fantastic. I still have the first Sunbeam mixer that was given to me as a wedding present close to 40 yrs ago! These are simply amazing. The Total Blender Classic FourSide, would be my preference. 😉

The WildSide is my favorite of their blenders and I love the variable control.
What a great giveaway! I already subscribe, I’m assuming this is a separate comment, system, yes? I’ll be right back after I check out their website 🙂
Liked GoodLife and already liked Blendtec.
Honestly, my favorite part is the 7 year warranty. That probably makes me a giant dork.
