We need something light for the hot days
Why we love it: Because it’s the easiest way to get your daily dose of vegetables while enjoying a tasty lunch or dinner.
The main ingredient is the avocado, so don’t skip it. It will give a creamy texture to the dish, aromas and an interesting taste.
What you will need:
- 1 1/2 tablespoons of yeast
- 1 bunch basil
- 1 handful of other mild herbs such as spring onions, parsley, cilantro, etc.
- 1/3 cup tahini
- 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
- juice of 1 1/2 lemons
- a spoonful of honey
- to taste
- 1-2 tablespoons of water to thin the dressing as needed
- 250g of fresh spinach
- 500g of pasta
- a cucumber, an avocado, two boiled courgettes, ready peas
How to make it:
- Fill a large pot with salted water. While the water is heating, put the yeast, basil, fresh herbs, tahini, apple cider vinegar, lemon juice, honey and salt and pepper in the blender.
- Once the water boils, add the spinach and blanch until the leaves turn pale green. With a strainer, take the spinach out of the pot and run it under cold water. You can also add raw spinach to the blender, but you can also blanch it.
- Add the pasta to the water and cook according to package directions.
- Drain the pasta. Add half the dressing to the pasta while it is still hot and toss to combine. Let the pasta cool.
- Cut the vegetables into small cubes as needed.
- In a large serving bowl, put pasta that you have ready, the vegetables and the rest of the dressing and mix to combine. Add lemon juice, salt and pepper.
