Combine all ingredients EXCEPT reserved marinade from artichoke hearts & olive oil in food processor. Blend until paste forms. Drizzle in slowly w/machine running enough artichoke marinade & olive oil until pesto is of the right consistency. When dressing pasta w/pesto use reserved dried tomato water instead of pasta water if needed to thin consistency.
