HIGH-PROTEIN PUMPKIN PASTA

5 steps
Prep:15minCook:30min
With Halloween coming, we are chiming in on the pumpkin vibes, and you have to try this delicious plant-based pasta recipe. Roasting the pumpkin adds so much depth of flavour, and the tofu brings it all together in a super creamy and decadent sauce 😍 This pasta is perfect if you’re trying to up your protein intake and brings you 41g of protein per serving. ✨Cooking tip ✨ Toasting your nuts and seeds brings them to a whole new level of flavour. I toast mine on a pan (no oil necessary) on low heat and watch them very carefully as they can burn quickly 😊
