HIGH-PROTEIN VEGAN 'MARRY ME PASTA' (MEAL PREP)

6 steps
Prep:10minCook:20min
If you spent more than 5 minutes on Foodtok last month, chances are you’ve come across a version of the viral “Marry me chicken pasta”, and if you’re like me, you were probably drooling. Of course, I wanted to veganise it but also make it extra nourishing, and while we were at it, I decided it was going to be this week’s meal prep. The combo of onions, capsicum, and sundried tomato with creamy cashew sauce, butter beans, spices and greens is unsurprisingly very tasty, and I’ve enjoyed it so much that I’ve made it 3 times already since trying it. To make it high protein (35g per bowl), we used lentil pasta. I love red lentil pasta, I’ve tried so many pulses pasta, and they’re definitely my favourite texture. Lentils are also easier to digest than most beans, so if you’re still new to the bean life, it’s a great one to stock up on.
