Ingredients

  

• 1 box of gluten free pasta
• Pinch of salt
• 12 oz frozen spinach
• 2 tbsp avocado oil
• 2 cloves garlic chopped
• 1/2 tsp basil
• 1/2 tsp black pepper
• 1/2 tsp red pepper flakes
• 4-5 artichoke hearts chopped
• 1 package vegan cream cheese

Instructions

 

• Boil water and salt in a large pot. Once water is boiling, add pasta and cook for 6-7 minutes. Do not cook fully, otherwise the noodles will become mushy. Save the pasta water for the sauce.
• While the pasta is cooking, microwave the spinach for 3-4 minutes until defrosted. Use a cheese cloth/nut milk bag/paper towel to squeeze liquid out of the spinach. Set aside once done.
• In a saucepan on medium heat, warm the avocado oil and garlic for a couple minutes. Then add in spices (basil, black pepper & red pepper) and mix. Add in spinach and artichoke hearts and sauté for 2-3 minutes.
• Then add in cream cheese and a ladle full of pasta water (about 1/4 – 1/2 cup). Slowly stir until cream cheese melts. You can add a little more pasta water if cream cheese is not melting or thinning out, but do so slowly so the sauce isn't too runny.
• Mix pasta into sauce and coat evenly. Pour into an oven-safe dish and broil on medium heat for 4-6 minutes. You can also sprinkle vegan cheese on top for extra creaminess.
• Let pasta cool for a minute or two, then enjoy.
