This vegan pasta is packed with vegetable protein & other goodness 🌿

I used whole-grain spaghetti, as whole-grain pasta is a healthier choice than regular pasta made with refined white flour. It is packed with fibre that helps to fuel your day.

Spaghetti is mixed with high-in-protein superfoods like kale, spinach & cashews. Sauce is thick and delicious, made with portobello mushrooms, tomatoes and red onion.

Give it a read 💛

you will need:

🌿 whole-grain pasta
🌿 75-100g of kale
🌿 250g of spinach
🌿 100g of chickpeas
🌿 1 punnet of graze's veggie protein power (you could replace this with 50g of cashews)
🌿 75ml hot water
🌿 1 red onion
🌿 2 large tomatoes
​🌿 ​1 tin of chopped tomatoes
🌿 200g of portobello mushrooms
🌿 1 chilli pepper
🌿 some olive oil
🌿 50ml of red wine
🌿 salt + pepper
🌿 1 tea spoon of dry coriander
🌿 1/2 tea spoon of grounded cumin
🌿 ​1/2 tea spoon of turmeric
🌿 1/2 tea spoon of chilli powder
​🌿 1/2 tea spoon of ginger powder

🌿 ​1/2 tea spoon of cinnamon

the recipe:

I wanted to give a protein upgrade to a regular whole-grain pasta, so I came up with this green mixture. To begin with, chop red onion & place half of into the baking tray. Add kale and chickpeas, splash some olive oil and pop into the oven (200C) for about 10 minutes.

Combine baked ingredients, 125g of spinach, veggie protein power (or cashew nuts), some olive oil, sea salt & hot water into the blender. Mix everything on the highest function for 1.5 minutes. Repeat 2 more times.

​p.s. you can always make more of this green mix. It can be used as a spread for your morning toast, or stir it with some vegan yogurt and use as a healthy dip.

Now prepare the sauce. Finely chop chilli pepper and tomatoes, then mix them with remaining onion, olive oil and spices (coriander, cumin, turmeric, chilli powder, ginger & cinnamon). Cook in a large frying pan.

Meanwhile cut portobello mushrooms. Mix them into the sauce, along with 125 g of spinach and chopped tinned tomatoes. Sprinkle some salt and pepper, then cook for 15 minutes on a low heat, stirring though every couple minutes.


Finally - prepare pasta. Cook spaghetti for 5-6 minutes, then drain. Take another frying pan and add green mixture made earlier, as well as cooked spaghetti. Fry for couple minutes constantly (but gently) mixing.
