  4. Pulse or process/blend mixture on low to desired consistency. Add the remaining ¼ cup Santa Fe Olive Oil & Balsamic Co. Santa Fe Blend Super Premium Varietal Extra Virgin Olive Oil slowly while mixing to achieve creamy texture.

AS A PASTA SAUCE: Add to pasta cooked al-dente and mix to cover all noodles. The heat of the pasta will warm the sauce to allow it to distribute evenly and warm up for serving!

AS A SANDWICH SPREAD: Dollop and spread on bread to rev up turkey, chicken, grilled cheese, and caprese sandwiches. You’ll never reach for mayo again!

AS A VEGETABLE DIP: Pile into a small bowl and serve with assorted vegetables for a healthy-and-delicious party dip!
