2 ripe Avocado no black spots on the flesh

12 oz Pasta

Instructions

Bring water to boil in a large saucepan that fits the entire broccoli head and feet.
Place the broccoli in the boiling water and blanch it for 2 minutes. It should be vibrant green but still firm, not mushy. Remove from the pan using a slotted spoon; don't discard the boiling water. Set the broccoli aside on a plate to let the steam out.
Cook the pasta in the same boiled water. Cook the pasta according to the instructions on the packaging. Rinse it in a sieve under cold water. Set it aside.
In a food processor, add the steamed, drained broccoli (head and feet), spinach, avocado flesh, garlic cloves, nutritional yeast or vegan Parmesan, salt, and dairy-free cream. If you use coconut cream the sauce tends to be sweeter and will taste like coconut!
Blend until it forms a creamy sauce with small pieces of herbs and broccoli.
Add the cooked pasta to a large pot, pour the green sauce over it, stir to coat the pasta, and bring the pan over medium-high heat.
Simmer and cook for 10 minutes until warm and fragrant. Taste and add more salt, pepper, and chili flakes to taste.
Serve with lemon zest, vegan feta cheese, and chili flakes.
