Ingredients: 1/4 cup pine nuts; 1/4 cup packed parsley; 1/4 cup packed basil; 2 tbsp capers or pitted olives; 1 tsp coarse kosher salt (less if using table salt); 1/2 tsp black pepper; juice and zest of half a lemon; 2 tbsp olive oil; 8 oz farfalle; 2 tbsp salted butter or vegan butter; 2 cloves garlic, thinly sliced; 2 stalks curly kale, stems removed, leaves chopped into bite-sized pieces; 1/2 cup white wine, reserved cooking water, broth, or any combination; red pepper flakes, to taste; grated Parmesan (omit Parmesan if vegan)

This Creamy Kale Pasta is fresh, easy, and DELICIOUS. Chewy bowtie pasta, coated in a light, salty, barely-creamy sauce, flecked with red pepper flakes and little bits of tender sautéed garlic kale.

Instructions

Make the sauce: Pulse all sauce ingredients together until mostly smooth. (The sauce will be very salty. That’s okay, it’ll tone down once it mixes with everything.)
Prep the pasta: Cook pasta according to package directions. Drain and set aside.
Cook down the kale: While the pasta is cooking, melt the butter over medium heat in a large skillet. Add the garlic; sauté for 1-2 minutes. Add the kale; sauté for 1-2 minutes until bright green and softened. Add the wine, water, or broth; let it sizzle out for a minute.
Finish: Add drained, cooked pasta and sauce. Toss to combine. Season to taste with Parmesan, lemon, red pepper flakes, and salt and pepper. Fast, easy, yum.
