ONE-POT CREAMY PASTA AND GREENS
In this recipe, frozen spinach, pasta and a whole lot of milk come together to create a satisfying pasta dish that will remind you of the best creamed spinach you've ever had. Stir the mixture often and vigorously to help the pasta release its starch and create a rich sauce. The lemon peel provides a bright citrus flavor, but you can leave it out. If you'd like a spicy version, add a dash of red-pepper flakes along with the shallot and garlic. You can also substitute different greens: Instead of frozen spinach, you can use 2 cups of chopped dark leafy greens, like chard or kale.

Steps:
- In a large pot or Dutch oven, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the garlic and shallot, season with salt and pepper, and cook, stirring, until softened, 2 to 4 minutes.
- Add the 5 cups milk, spinach, lemon peel and 2 teaspoons salt. Cook, stirring occasionally and breaking up the frozen spinach with your spoon, until the spinach is softened and the milk is just simmering, 5 to 10 minutes.
- Add the pasta and cook, stirring often and vigorously, until the pasta is al dente, 20 to 25 minutes, adjusting the heat as needed to maintain a gentle simmer. If it looks dry at any point, add more milk. The mixture will continue to thicken as it sits, so it's OK if the sauce looks a little soupy.
- Once the pasta is cooked, turn off the heat, discard the lemon peels, and stir in the Parmesan until melted. Season to taste with salt and pepper, and serve with more Parmesan.
CREAMY GREEN PASTA
This dish is so satisfying and unctuous. I use unsweetened, plant-based single cream (light cream) with greens tossed through. I then top with crispy, toasted breadcrumbs to add another texture to finish off this crowd pleaser.

Steps:
- For the pasta: Bring a large pot of salted water to the boil. Cook the pasta as per the package instructions (10 to 12 minutes).
- For the toasted breadcrumbs: Heat a large sauté pan over medium-high heat and add the extra-virgin olive oil. Once hot, add the breadcrumbs, along with a good seasoning pinch of salt and pepper, and fry, stirring frequently, until golden and crisp, about 3 minutes. Now stir in the chopped parsley and tip out into a bowl. Set aside.
- Now add the olive oil to the same pan, then add the chopped leeks and broccoli florets and sauté until just cooked through, about 4 minutes. Stir in the peas, chopped spinach and B12 flakes.
- Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the plant-based cream. Return the pan to the heat and season with a big, generous pinch of sea salt and a generous helping of black pepper. Add the zest of the lemon.
- Drain the cooked pasta and add to the pan, tossing to coat in the sauce. Sprinkle with the crispy breadcrumbs and serve.
