Pasta With Peas
Our Pasta with Peas and Luscious Green Sauce is a combination of the simplicity of pasta with the freshness of peas and the boldness of a homemade green sauce. This recipe is a refreshing dish, perfect for a quick and flavorful meal. Feel free to customize it with additional vegetables, protein, or your favorite pasta shape.
In this recipe, we elevate the pasta experience by adding a generous portion of sweet and tender peas. These little green gems not only add a pop of color but also contribute a delightful sweetness that perfectly complements the richness of the pasta.
At the heart of this dish is the luscious green sauce, fresh herbs, garlic, and Parmesan cheese. The aromatic blend of basil and parsley, with the savory notes of garlic, creates a sauce that’s not only visually appealing but also a burst of flavors. The addition of toasted nuts and seeds adds a nutty crunch, while the extra virgin olive oil brings it all together with a silky finish.
