How to Make a Gut Nourishing Pesto Pasta

The other day I found a full little bushy plant of basil and had the urge to create something with pesto! I had a full jar of macadamia nuts so thought why not make a macadamia pesto pasta! It was such a delicious meal that everyone enjoyed, not only is it tasty, its nourishing and a gut friendly.

Macadamia Pesto Pasta

Ingredients:

Pesto

3/4 cup of raw macadamia nuts

1 cup of fresh basil leaves

1/2 a cup of parsley

Salt

Pepper

A few table spoons of Macadamia or olive oil to combine

Pasta

3 courgettes spiralised

Chicken bone broth

100/150 grams of chicken per person

How to:

1. Prep your pasta/noodles and place to one side

2. Make your pesto, I found it is easier to make the pesto in my NutriBullet.

3. Place courgettes noodles/pasta in a pot with bone broth and cook for 1-2 minutes to slightly soften the pasta.

4. Place noodles in a bowl and if you feel as though there is too much broth empty some out and put in a cup to drink later.

5. Mix through pesto and chicken.

6. Garnish with some crushed macadamias and basil leaves

Enjoy and let me know what you think!! Renee xx
