Red Pepper PEsto

This recipe was offered by one of our CSA members, Jamene. It's a variation on the more familiar basil pesto - this one uses red bell peppers. Jamene says this is great on steak salad with feta and croutons. I could even see it combined with steamed or roasted summer squash! -Jenny
