This Vegan Wild Garlic Pasta is one of my favorite pasta dishes to make in springtime during wild garlic season. In the park near our home, there is a large patch of wild garlic which I visit regularly each year in springtime. When I come home with a large bag of foraged wild garlic, the first thing I make is wild garlic pesto which I serve with spaghetti.
While the spaghetti is cooking, I add wild garlic, sunflower seeds, nutritional yeast, salt, olive oil and lemon juice to a food processor. I blend until I have a smooth green pesto. Once the spaghetti is cooked, I drain it and mix through the pesto. There you have it, a delicious meal in only 15 minutes!
To make Vegan Wild Garlic Pasta, you will need the following ingredients:
Follow the package instructions to cook the spaghetti. Drain and reserve a cup of cooking water.
Place 3 cups of wild garlic, 3 tablespoons of sunflower seeds, 1 tablespoon of nutritional yeast, ½ a teaspoon of salt, 3 tablespoons of olive oil and 1 tablespoon of lemon juice in a blender. Blend on high speed until you have a smooth pesto. Scrape down the sides of the blender using a spatula.
Add the wild garlic pesto to the pot with spaghetti. Toss well and add 1-2 tablespoons of cooking water to thin out the pesto until all the pasta is coated.
Serve in large pasta bowls, sprinkled with nutritional yeast flakes.
