Ingredients
6 ounces of lentil pasta, you can also substitue another high protein pasta, like chickpea pasta
1/2 of an 8.5 ounce jar of sundried tomatoes packed in oil and spices
1 14 ounce can of artichoke hearts
1 tablespoon of plant based butter
Vegan parmesan cheese for garnish–I used Trader Joes’ Vegan Parmesan for this recipe but my homemade vegan parmesan works great in this recipe too.
Instructions
Add about 6 ounces or 1/2 a bag of pasta to boiling salted water.
Add in a dash of cooking oil, this will prevent the pasta from boiling over.
Cook according to package directions, be careful to not overcook this pasta or it will become mushy! Generally it takes 5-6 minutes.
While the pasta is cooking, drain the sundried tomatoes and artichoke hearts and cut into small pieces.
Drain the cooked pasta.
Add 1 tablespoon of plant based butter to the pot you cooked the pasta in.
Add in the sun dried tomatoes and artichoke hearts and add a dash or salt. You can also add garlic powder if you want or any other spices!
