Carrot pasta with Basil pesto

Recipe by Adriana

 

Ingredients:

4 medium carrots, peeled

2 Tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil

2 Tbsp. Kale-Parsley-Basil pesto

Pinches of salt and pepper to taste

Cashews or Pine nuts, toasted

Vegan Cheese (Optional)

Basil and parsley leaves, finely chopped

 

Instructions:

Fill a large pan with water and place on high heat. Then, shave the carrots with a vegetable peeler. When the water comes to a rolling boil, add the carrots and cook for a couple minutes (do not exceed 5 minutes). They should be softened but not breaking apart. Drain the water.

In a small saucepan, on low-medium heat, warm the olive oil and stir in the pesto. Add salt and pepper and continue stirring until the mixture is hot. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.

Mix the carrots with the pesto sauce. Divide between plates and garnish with the pine nuts or cashews, vegan cheese, parsley and basil.
