Creamy Hidden Veg Spinach and Garlic Pesto Pasta
Creamy hidden veg spinach and garlic pesto bow ties with crunchy crushed walnut pieces for this meatless Monday! 🌱
This can be made totally vegan or just keep it vegetarian and it’s so dang tasty, still packed with tons of vitamins and one serving of your 5-a-day (I’m no doc but I’m sure it counts for something) 😱 because there is spinach in there!
Ingredients:
¼ cup dairy free cream (I used Arla lactose free, but for vegan use Oatly)
1 cup of baby spinach
1 clove of garlic, peeled
1 bunch (30g or as much as you like) basil leaves
1/2 cup olive oil
How to:
Just blend all ingredients until combined, but not smooth, still leave with pieces of basil and spinach showing or blend completely for a smooth sauce.
I’ve made some bowties to have this with, and sprinkled some crushed walnuts on top! Easy as that.
Store in a jar for a day or two to keep using, can go nicely as a salad dressing, too 🥬
