Steps:
- Prepare the pasta according to package directions and make sure to salt your pasta water well. While it is cooking follow the next steps.
- Add the peas, 1/2 cup water, garlic, nutritional yeast, balsamic vinegar, salt and pepper to a large pan and turn the heat to medium. You are NOT adding the lemon juice yet. Cook for 5-10 minutes until almost all the liquid has evaporated, stirring occasionally.
- Add the cooked mixture to a food processor with the lemon juice and kale, in batches, until pureed and completely smooth, as in the photo. Add the warm pasta water to reach desired consistency. I added about 2 more tablespoons of water. Taste and add any additional seasoning, if desired. For more acidity, add more vinegar or lemon juice. Serve over pasta.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.
- In a large bowl, toss the chopped kale and garlic cloves with the olive oil(or if you want an all oil free option, use veggie broth) and a few pinches of salt and pepper. Rub the olive oil all over the kale and massage it in to make sure the kale is all moist.
- Pour the kale and garlic on to a baking sheet and bake at 375 degrees for about 8-10 minutes. The kale should be nice and soft. Remove from the oven when done.
- In the meantime, cook the pasta according to package instructions. Drain the pasta when done.
- If you are adding vegan sausage, slice and brown on each side in a non stick pan while the pasta is cooking. Set aside.
- Once the kale and garlic are done, add them to a blender or a food processor. Then add the nutritional yeast, the 1/4 cup of veggie broth, walnuts, lemon juice, 1/2 tsp. salt and red pepper flakes. Blend until completely smooth, scraping down sides as needed.
- Return the pasta to the pot, scoop the pesto into the pot and toss to coat the pasta. Taste and adjust seasoning. Add more salt or pepper if needed. Then add the sliced sausages. Serve with vegan Parmesan on top if desired.

Steps:
- Roast the almonds in a hot pan until golden and fragrant. You could also do it in an oven (180° C / 355° F) for about 10 minutes - start checking on them towards the end of the baking time as they can go from toasted to burnt in a matter of seconds. Allow the almonds to cool down completely before blending in the pesto.
- Place all the pesto ingredients apart from the olive oil into a food processor. I used 4 tbsp / ¼ cup of lemon juice in my pesto, but I like things to be lemony so you may want to adjust the amount to your taste. Process until chopped small and then start trickling in olive oil while the motor is going.
- Adjust the seasoning to your taste.
- Boil a large pot of water and cook your pasta al dente or to your liking.
- Prepare the vegetables by either boiling them, steaming or stir-frying quickly. I boiled the peas for 2 minutes and then plunged them in ice-cold water to preserve their beautiful colour and stir-fried the zucchini and asparagus in a hot wok for 2 minutes. You could also eat both the zucchini and asparagus raw (slice the zucchini thinly and shave the asparagus with a speed peeler) if you would like to incorporate some untampered nutrition into this dish!
- Drain your pasta and toss it in some pesto, mix the veggies in and serve.
- For the topping, mix the hemp seeds with nutritional yeast (1:1 ratio) in a small bowl for a quick vegan parmesan. Give each portion a squeeze of lemon and a light sprinkle of chilli flakes (I used fine Korean chilli flakes) if you wish.

Steps:
- Begin by making the pesto. Remove the tender kale from the stems, set the stems aside or compost them. Bring a pot of water to a boil. Add a pinch of salt and blanch the kale for a few seconds, or until the kale is bright green. Set the kale aside to cool.
- Once the kale is cool, squeeze the water out so that the kale leaves are nice and dry. Add the kale, hemp hearts, oil, garlic, yeast, water, lemon juice and sea salt in a food processor. Puree until well combined and no large leaves of kale remain.
- Get the pasta on, cooking as required.
- Next, heat a frying pan over medium-high heat. Add a few tsp. of cooking oil along with the broccoli. Toss the broccoli so that you get some charred areas. Add a few tbsp. of water if the broccoli starts to stick. Continue to cook, string often, until the broccoli is tender, but not mushy, about 8 minutes.
- Once the broccoli is cooked, add the rinsed chickpeas and toss until they are warmed.
- Drain the pasta and combine in the frying pan along with the broccoli and pesto. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
- Top with hemp hearts, chili flakes, or grated brazil nuts.
