Elevate your pesto pasta in the New Year by adding olives to your pesto! This Olive Pesto Pasta is an easy and delicious way to add a little oomph to a traditional dish. This easy weeknight dish is so simple and it’s sure to be a real crowd pleaser on your next pasta night!
Big pesto fan here… you too?! I mean, aside from my Italian heritage and pesto pretty much running through my veins, it’s such a simple, nourishing meal. Between the garlic and basil and parsley, among other ingredients, pesto is just a powerhouse of nutrients.
This Olive Pesto Pasta only takes 30 minutes to make. You’ll need a food processor/blender and if you’re feeling fancy like I was, you can use lasagna noodles and slice them into strips using a pizza cutter for a thicker, more textured noodle. Or you can simply use whatever pasta you’d like.
And while there is certainly nothing wrong with a traditional pesto, sometimes I like to mix it up a bit. So today, I’m bringing you an olive-lovers dream! If you love olives, you will for sure love this Olive Pesto Pasta! And if you don’t love olives, well the taste is subtle and I bet you’ll still enjoy it.
This gluten-free, vegan dish makes the absolute perfect healthy weeknight meal, but it can also double as a fancy schmancy date night dinner π
You can use store-bought vegan parmesan cheese in this recipe, but I urge you to try my Vegan Parmesan Cheese and keep some stored in your fridge at all times. I put it on and in everything!
