Verde Pasta

This is another wonderful adaptation from Simply in Season. My kids wolfed it down, veggies and all!


In a food processor or blender combine
1/2 cup diaya mozzarella cheese substitute
1/3 c rice or hemp milk (plain)
basil and garlic salt to taste,
Pulse a couple times to mix and blend up

Set aside

12 oz rice pasta (spaghetti, fusilli or linguine) cook according to package directions

2 cups broccoli
1 cup green beans
1 cup peas
1/4 cup spinach

Stir the broccoli into the pasta 6 min before it is done,
Stir in the green beans 2 min before the pasta is done
Add the peas and spinach 1 min before the pasta is done.

Drain pasta and veggies, add a little olive oil and toss, then pour your cheese mixture over the top and toss again.

Serve as a meatless meal or as a side to grilled chicken or steak.

Enjoy!
