I used Banza penne pasta for this recipe which is why the protein is so high. This is a pasta made from chickpeas but you can use any pasta you like or even zucchini noodles!

Instructions

Start by boiling some water and cooking your pasta according to the directions on the package.
While the pasta is cooking add your pesto ingredients into a food processor and process until smooth. Add the plant milk in slowly, you may not need it all or you may need 1-2 tbsp more. You might need to stop your food processor along the way and scare down the sides as well to keep it blending.
Once your pasta is done rinse and drain it in a colander and add it back into the pot with the pesto. Cook over medium heat for 2-3 minutes until it is all warm and tossed together. Enjoy!
