Ingredients
- 8 ounces regular linguine
- 8 ounces spinach or basil linguine
- ¼ cup olive oil
- 1 green squash cut lengthwise into thin strips
- 1 yellow squash cut lengthwise into thin strips
- ⅓ cup vegan pesto
- Salt & Pepper to taste
Instructions
- Cook linguine according to package directions.
Use a spinach pasta if you find it. This was a basil pasta and was sooooo good by itself. Added the pesto and almost died.
- While pasta is cooking, heat olive oil in pan over medium heat.
- Add in squash and cook for 4-minutes.
I used a vegetable peeler to get the squash nice and smooth. But don’t go too fast, you may cut yourself!
- Season with salt and pepper and reduce heat to low.
- Drain pasta and toss with squash in a serving bowl.
- Combine in pesto and serve immediately.
