Kale Pesto Pasta

So delicious! I’d certainly remake this one!

Oh my word this recipe!!! 😍 I tasted the raw pesto right after blending it and thought gosh I’m gonna have to eat that but it’s not great - after cooking it for a few minutes with the pasta water it’s a completely different story! I’ve made it with pine nuts too, to die for! Have it on rotation, and with the vegan parm it’s absolutely delicious 😍

Thank you for the wonderful feedback, Emma! Cooking the pesto really brings out its flavours, and pine nuts are a fantastic addition. We're thrilled to hear it's part of your regular rotation 🙌

Only made the pesto to get rid of my kale leftovers. Easy and tasty. It's rather thick so I put in some extra oil (to replace the original recipe's cooking liquid).

I topped it with cherry tomatoes and it was really fresh on an Australian summer night

A delicious idea, Taimi! Hugs to Australia 🤗

Satisfying!

Absolutely delicious 😍

Excellent, quick, easy to make and approved by my husband and my baby, a total win thank you !

Was missing something - maybe sun-dried tomatoes?

Fantastic! And no leftovers!

My friend doesn't normally like pesto but she liked this. I can see myself making this regularly.

Yayy so glad it was enjoyed, Ingrid!

So easy to make and really good.

Super easy and tasty !

Needed to add some water to make the pesto smooth, but it was absolutely delicious. Served it in jack-o-lantern bell peppers for Halloween and named it zombie brains. Kids devoured it!

Aw that sounds so much fun, Lies, so glad the whole family enjoyed it! 😄👻

Delicious. So creamy and flavorful. My hubby almost didn’t believe the pesto was based on kale 😁

It’s so good! Every recipe I’ve tried on this app has SO much flavor. You are changing my life!!

Woohoo! Super happy to hear, Leigh, thank you :)

It’s the best I love it thank you for making this recipe!

Quick, easy, and has such striking flavor.

I didnt have enough almonds so added some sunflower seeds and it was still delicious. My 2year old loved it. Great recipe to sneak in some greens for kids :)

Very tasty! I used a 140-g box of baby kale blend salad greens instead of the kale, and frozen green peas instead of edamame. I was surprised at how full it kept me!

Tastes delicious, but I guess you would need a very strong blender for this one - I never managed to get a smooth pesto, the kale remained rather chewy.

Hey Tahnee, we wouldn't advise using a blender for this one as there isn't enough liquid. A food processor is better suited for a dryer mixture, such as this. It may be possible to use a high-powered blender with some added water though 🙂

Healthy and quick

such an easy and delicious pesto recipe (great to use up kale from the fridge too!!)

Loved it! Simple and delicious!

Made this one for dinner today and after one bite my fiancé said it had to be added to our regular rotation!

I used purple sweet potato rice noodles and some additional nutritional yeast for the vegan Parmesan. It worked great and now I’m fighting off one of my cats who wants to stick her head in it.

Hmm sounds lovely, Sherlyn! Bon appétit, to you and perhaps soon to be your cat 😜

This was lovely - new to plant based eating and this is the nicest thing I’ve made so far. Don’t skip ingredients if you can help it - the lemon for example made all the difference!

I'm so glad you liked it, Debbie! Welcome to the delicious world of plants - I hope you find more recipes you enjoy 🥰

Simple to make, great taste and texture!

Love this recipe. It’s quick and delicious! Definitely my go to when I am in a hurry for lunch or dinner. As a plus my 1 year old loves it too! ❤️
