A velvety, dairy-free pesto built on toasty whole almonds and the bright sweetness of fresh tomatoes. Sunflower oil makes it silky, soy sauce and nutritional yeast bring a savory, almost cheesy depth, and a spoonful of apple cider vinegar lifts everything with a gentle tang. There is no cooking and no fuss — everything goes into the blender at once. Toss it through hot pasta for an instant sauce, or spread it generously over toasted bread for a quick, satisfying snack.
