Ingredients
  

  • 8 oz whole wheat ditalini or gluten-free small pasta
  • 1 cup fresh or frozen green peas
  • 2 cups baby spinach or arugula/kale
  • 1/2 cup raw cashews soaked 30 min
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1 garlic clove
  • 1 tbsp fresh basil chopped
  • 1 tbsp fresh parsley chopped
  • 1.5 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1/2 lemon juiced
  • 1/2 small onion diced
  • 1/4 tsp sea salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • Optional: pinch of chili flakes

Equipment

  • Large pot

Method
 

  1. Cook ditalini in a large pot of salted water until al dente; drain and set aside.
  2. While pasta cooks, sauté onion in olive oil over medium heat until translucent. Add peas and greens, cook until wilted, then remove from heat.
  3. Blend soaked cashews, water, garlic, lemon juice, basil, parsley, salt, and pepper until smooth and creamy.
  4. Combine cooked pasta, sautéed veggies, and cashew-herb sauce in the pot. Toss over low heat until well coated.
  5. Serve warm, garnished with extra fresh herbs and a drizzle of olive oil. Add a pinch of chili flakes for heat if desired.

Notes

Substitute: Use chickpea pasta for a protein boost. Sub spinach for any leafy green.
Addition: Add roasted zucchini, asparagus, or snap peas for more veggies. Top with toasted seeds or pine nuts.
For nut-free, use sunflower seeds instead of cashews for the sauce.
For vegan, all ingredients are plant-based already.
