Boil pasta in a large saucepan of salted water for 10 minutes or until al dente.
Meanwhile, to make pesto, place basil, garlic, pine nuts, olive oil, nutritional yeast, lemon juice and salt in a food processor and process until finely chopped. Add silken tofu and blend until smooth.
Drain pasta and return to pan. Stir through pesto, sun-dried tomatoes, olives and extra pine nuts. Season with salt and pepper.
Divide among serving bowls and garnish with extra basil.
