Directly from: http://www.care2.com/greenliving/parsley-pesto-w-walnuts-pasta-vegan.html# except I changed the amount of pasta (most pasta boxes I have ar 14 oz not 16 oz) and the number of servings. The original recipe say 16 oz pasta and 6 servings.Inspired by The Mediterranean Vegan Kitchen, by Donna Klein (HP Books, 2001).This protein- and omega-3-rich pesto uses milder-flavored parsley instead of the usual basil for a garlicky, rich, and delicious pasta topping that will tide you over beautifully until the basil pops up in your garden or farmer?s market.Using a food processor makes it one of the quickest and easiest pasta delights ever.1. In a food processor fitted with a metal blade, process walnuts, oil, parsley, broth, garlic, bread crumbs, and salt until smooth.2. Cook pasta in boiling water until al dente. Reserve 1/4 cup cooking liquid, then drain pasta in colander.3. Place pasta in a large serving bowl and add the parsley-walnut pesto and reserved cooking liquid. Toss well to combine and serve at once.Makes 8, approximately 1 cup servingsNumber of Servings: 8Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user GEM1784.
