How to Prepare Smashed Potatoes With Sun-Dried Tomato Pesto [Vegan, Grain-Free]

Prepare sun-dried tomato pesto according to instructions. Set aside.

Place potatoes in a large pot. Cover with water and place on the stove. Bring water to a boil and simmer until potatoes are fork tender, approximately 15-20 minutes.
Drain potatoes and set aside until cool enough to handle. Spray a baking sheet with non-stick spray.
Place potatoes on the baking sheet. Using a potato masher or fork, carefully smash each potato until flat. Drizzle olive oil and garlic powder over potatoes. Bake for 20 minutes or until crisp. Remove from the oven and sprinkle with salt.
Transfer potatoes to a serving plate and drizzle with sun-dried tomato pesto. Top with additional basil and serve.
