This recipe is inspired from the Creamy Roasted Tomato pasta from a Happy Herbivore meal plan.
Ingredients:
- 12 oz. pasta, cooked
- Kale
- 1 Onion, sliced thin
- 8 oz. Mushrooms, sliced
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 can fire-roasted diced tomatoes
- 2 cups hummus
- 2 tablespoon of dried basil, adjust to desired taste
- 1/2 cup pasta water (if needed)
- Optional: red pepper flakes (for some spice)
Directions:
- Cook the pasta according to the directions on the package. Add the kale the last minute of cooking (or see notes). Drain.
- While pasta is cooking: Caramelize the onion in some water or broth.
- Add in mushrooms and garlic and saute for a few minutes.
- Add the diced tomatoes and cook for a few minutes.
- Stir together the hummus and basil and add pasta water until it’s a creamy consistency. Add to pan with mushroom and onion mixture and heat through.
- When the pasta is done: Combine the sauce with the pasta and serve.
Notes: You can cook the kale along with the mushrooms, onions, and garlic or steam the kale in advance and add in at the end. Spinach is also delicious.
Enjoy 🙂
