Farfalle with Cavolo Nero and Courgettes
15 minutes total
This is a super speedy dish, ready in not much more time than it takes to cook the pasta. Cavolo nero and courgettes are simmered in vegetable stock, then a vegan “cheese” made from cashew nuts, nutritional yeast and a little salt, is stirred through the broth. Barilla Collezione Farfalle is cooked and stirred through once all the vegetables are tender. Add as much or as few chilli flakes as you like to give a little kick of heat.
