How to Prepare Penne With Herby Pesto [Vegan]

Soak cashews in 2 cups of filtered water with one tablespoon of apple cider vinegar for a minimum of two hours/up to six hours. Then rinse thoroughly with fresh water. This will increase the digestibility of the nuts and remove any moulds and mycotoxins.
Preheat oven to 350°F.
Line a baking tray with parchment paper and roast nuts for 10 - 15 minutes until dry and crunchy.
Remove and let cool.
Place all remaining pesto ingredients into a high-speed food processor and mix until well combined.
Cook the pasta until al dente and then combine by hand with pesto, broccoli, and chickpeas.
Serve warm. Also great for a next day lunchbox.
