Pasta with Peas and Asparagus by Heather Christo
Nothing says “the first days of spring” quite like fresh green peas and asparagus. And since both vegetables cook very quickly, this recipe is great for a busy weeknight. To make vegan, simply swap out the butter for a little more olive oil and skip the parmesan.

Spinach Pesto with Flaxseed and Walnuts by J for Jackie
Pesto and pasta are a match made in Heaven – and with walnuts and ground flaxseed, this recipe is a delicious and nutritious variation. It would work well with nearly any type of pasta, but we like the way rotelle manages to trap the creamy, complex sauce in its corkscrew curls.
