We would eat this pasta for the standout color alone, but the flavor is even better! Give it a try, it’s divine!
Preparation
STEP 1
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
STEP 2
Add kale, spinach and garlic cloves. Cook until greens are wilted, and garlic is tender, about 2 minutes.
STEP 3
Using tongs or a strainer remove all the greens and garlic from the water and transfer to a blender. Leave the pot of water, we will use it again!
STEP 4
To the blender add olive oil, lemon zest, lemon juice, parmesan, salt and pepper. Puree until completely smooth. Taste for seasoning.
STEP 5
Bring the pot of water back to boil and cook pasta per package instructions.
STEP 6
Toss cooked drained pasta with super green sauce. Serve immediately with a dollop of ricotta cheese or burrata and extra lemon if desired.
