7 INGREDIENT QUINOA GREEN PESTO PASTA | GLUTENFREE & VEGAN






Pesto pastaaa we all love it sooo much! But what if you switched up the traditional wheat pasta for quinoa pasta? Quinoa is so incredibly healthy and this ancient grains is not only extremely nutrient dense but also very very very tasty! It is also high in protein so that's another health benefit! I used the green avocado pesto from my e-book (which you can buy on my website) and it just adds the perfect creamyness and healthy fats as well!

The steps couldn't be easier, so let's start cooking!


Ingredients (2 portions):

  • 150g uncooked quinoa pasta @kazidomi.nl

  • 200g cherry tomatoes

  • 2 portions of avocado pesto (from my e-book)

  • 100g sugar snap peas

  • 1 handfull of fresh basil

  • 200g asparagus

  • 1 tbsp garlic olive oil @kazidomi.nl

  • salt & black pepper

Method:

  1. Cook the quinoa pasta according to the package instructions

  2. Wash the veggies and cut the asparagus into pieces.

  3. Heat up the garlic olive oil in a frying pan and sautee the sugar snap peas with the asparagus for 3-5 minutes.

  4. Then add the pasta, avocado pesto, cherry tomatoes, salt & black pepper to taste and 1 big handful of fresh basil.

  5. Serve with some more fresh basil and perhaps some vegan parmesan?
