Ingredients

1 pound pasta
10 oz bag of spinach
1 teaspoon extra virgin olive oil
1 block silken tofu about 15oz, drained
½ cup plant-based milk
2 tablespoons lemon juice
2 teaspoons Italian seasoning
1 teaspoon garlic powder
4 tablespoons nutritional yeast or sub parmesan cheese/vegan parmesan
salt and pepper to taste I added 1/2 tsp of salt and 1/2 tsp of pepper
½ cup packed fresh herbs I used a mix of fresh basil, dill, and tarragon
⅓ cup hemp seeds
⅓ cup green onions or chives

Instructions

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Once boiling, add in the pasta and cook to al dente. Drain and set aside.
Meanwhile, make the green goddess pasta sauce. In a large skillet over medium heat, add in the oil. Once hot, add in the spinach, a little at a time as needed, and keep cooking until it’s all wilted. This will only take a few minutes.
To a blender, add in the wilted spinach, tofu, milk, lemon juice, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, nutritional yeast, salt + pepper, herbs, hemp seeds, and chives. Blend on high until creamy and fully liquified.
In the same skillet you cooked the spinach, add in the sauce and heat over low heat, stirring often. Once heated through, add in the pasta and toss to combine.
Serve with a sprinkle of parmesan and fresh herbs and ENJOY!
