  1. Cook the pasta as the pack says. Drain and set aside.
  2. Blend the cavolo nero, pumpkin seed butter, garlic, almond milk, nutritional yeast, olive oil, salt and pepper until smooth.
  3. Warm the pesto in a pan over a low heat.
  4. Toss the pasta in the pesto until coated and serve warm, with a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil.
