How to Prepare Pesto Pasta [Vegan]

  1. In a food processor with the S-shape blade, add the basil, pine nuts, and garlic. Pulse a few times to chop. Then add the lemon juice, nutritional yeast, and sea salt, pulse again to roughly combine. Next, turn the food processor to a low speed and drizzle in the olive oil. Continue blending until the mixture is combined, but there is still some texture—place to the side.
  2. Heat a large pot of boiling water and add the pasta noodles and a generous pinch of sea salt. Cook until al-dente (about 7 mins). Strain and add the noodles back to the pot. Pour in the pesto and toss to combine.
  3. Transfer to bowls and serve.
