Ingredients

½ cup olive oil

2 cups (half of a large bunch) fresh parsley, stems removed

1 teaspoon dried basil

5 cloves of garlic, minced

1/3 cup ground almonds

1/3 cup Parmesan cheese

½ teaspoon salt

½ teaspoon pepper

1 pound pasta, cooked (reserve a few tablespoons of water)

Preparation

Toss all of the ingredients (except the pasta, of course) into a blender or food processor and pulse until fully combined. Taste and adjust seasonings if needed.

Toss with cooked pasta. If it seems dry, stir in a few tablespoons of the reserved pasta water until it reaches your desired consistency. Serve topped with more Parmesan and whatever other toppings (mushrooms, tofu, etc.) you prefer.
