Color Changing Lemon&Garlic Pasta
The prettiest pasta to serve your significant other this Valentine's Day
Servings: 2 people
Ingredients
- 1/2 medium head purple cabbage, cut into large chunks
- 200 g linguini
- 1/4 cup good quality olive oil
- 3 small cloves garlic, minced
- 1 lemon, juiced
- Pinch of pink Himalaya salt
- Pinch of freshly ground black pepper
- To serve: vegan parmesan, lemon zest
Instructions
- Fill a large pot 3/4 the way up with water. Add your cabbage, come up to a boil, reduce heat, then cover with a lid and simmer for 15 minutes.
- Remove the cabbage and save to sauté later.
- Bring the water up to a boil again, adding a large pinch of salt. Add your linguin, and cook according to package instructions.
- While your pasta is cooking, make your sauce. Heat a medium-large skillet over medium heat. The skillet should be large enough to fit your pasta. Add olive oil and garlic and sauté for a minute. Add lemon juice, and season with salt and pepper. Turn off the heat and let your pasta finish cooking.
- Once your pasta is al dente, use tongs to add it to the sauce. Save some pasta water in case you need to thicken your sauce. Toss your pasta in the sauce and watch it turn bright pink! Top with your desired toppings (parsley, vegan parm, lemon zest, etc.), and enjoy!
