Pesto Pasta & Zoodle Bake

Pesto Pasta Zoodle Bake-1

For some reason, I am not really craving pasta anymore these days, and I actually think that’s a good thing! (Pizza is a whole other story tho..) 🙂 However, I discovered a recipe for a pasta bake with zucchini and also just bought some gluten-free, tri-colored pasta I wanted to try.

So I made this super simple 4-ingredient-dish, which takes no time at all! The zoodles make it a bit healthier than the usual pasta bake and the dried tomatoes add some sweet flavor to it. You could also add some pine nuts to spice it up!

Ingredients:

  • 250 g (gluten-free) vegan pasta
  • 1 zucchini
  • 6 dried tomatoes in oil
  • 5 tsp vegan green pesto
  • 1 tsp chili powder
  • salt

Instructions:

  1. Cook pasta according to package instructions, but cook them 2 minutes shorter than instructed. Cut dried tomatoes. Spiralize zucchini (I used a spiralizer with a wide blade to make wider zoodles).
  2. Mix pasta with pesto, zucchini & tomatoes and fill into a baking dish. Add chili powder & salt to taste.
  3. Bake in the oven for about 15 minutes (or until slightly browned) at 430°F (225°C).
