Creamy Pesto Rutabaga Pasta
Report
A healthy take on regular pesto pasta, this side dish is made with rutabaga noodles, fresh pesto and almond milk. It takes only 15 minutes and tastes absolutely delicious!
Share:
Ingredients
- ½ Tablespoon neutral cooking oil avocado, coconut or olive oil will work, generic cooking oil
- 2 Tablespoons red onion chopped
- 1-2 rutabaga peeled (should make about 3 cups of noodles
- ⅓ cup almond milk Almond Breeze brand, unsweetened
- 2 Tablespoons pesto freshly prepared
- ⅓ cup grape tomatoes chopped
- crushed red pepper to taste
Instructions
- Use a spiralizer to create rutabaga noodles.
- Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion and sauté for about 2 minutes. Add spiralized rutabaga noodles to the skillet and sauté for 2 additional minutes.
- Add almond milk, cook for 2-4 more minutes or until the noodles have softened but still have a little crunch. Add pesto to the skillet and stir to combine. Add tomatoes and crushed red pepper. Remove from heat and serve. Store any leftovers in the fridge. You can eat them cold or reheat before serving.
Notes
- For this pasta I highly recommend buying freshly prepared pesto or making your own. I’m just not sure it will taste as good with the stuff from a jar.
