I have made it as written, and also without the oil. I usually stick to oil free recipes because I follow a whole food plant-based diet. But this looks so good I couldn’t resist! The way I have made this oil free is substituting the oil for avocado with a splash of water. The end result has a different consistency but the flavor is so similar since the avocado alone doesn’t have much flavor. Thank you once again Kate for your amazing recipes!

Hi Mallory! I find you need the oil to help with flavor, cooking and to make this come together. I’m sorry to hear your sensitivities (but also congratulations!). You may be able to use some water in replace of the oil in the pesto, but I’m hesitant you will get a great result. I don’t know if aquafaba would be a great alternative here.

I really don’t know. (I can’t have a ton of fat because my gall bladder is super sensitive to it during pregnancy)

I had to keep my kid away because he kept grabbing tortilla chips to eat it with before it went on the pasta. This one is definitely going into the weeknight dinner rotation, thank you!

It should hold-up fine! You can always try to freeze it. That’s work for my other recipes in the past. It might works for this one, depending how far in advance you want to make it.

This recipe looks amazing!
I have a question – can the pesto be made in advance? Or will it turn brown?

Let me know, looking forward!
