Pasta with Miso Pesto

A bowl of spaghetti topped with fresh green pesto sauce and pine nuts, accompanied by a jar of pesto, fresh herbs, and olive oil.

I am trying to expand my vegan recipes. So, I asked one of my chef friends and he said this was great tossed with pasta. He attributes this recipe to the Vegetarian Times.

  • Pasta, enough for 4 of your choice, cooked and drained
  • ½ cup spinach leaves, washed and spun dry
  • ½ cup fresh parsley leaves, washed and spun dry

  • Toss with pasta of your choice.
