  • kosher salt
  • 1/2 cup almonds, toasted

Preparation

Step 1

Roast the cauliflower in a 400F oven for 30 minutes, shaking the pan once or twice, until golden brown.

In a food processor, add the toasted almonds, parsley, garlic, capers and roasted cauliflower. Pulse once or twice and add the olive oil. Pulse a few more times to make a nice chunky consistency. Taste and season the pesto with salt & pepper.

Cook your pasta and add the pesto with raisins along w/ some reserved pasta water to thin out the sauce.
