One-Pot Pesto Penne Party

In a large pot, dissolve the Knorr vegetable stock cube in boiling water and bring to a boil over high heat.

Add the potato discs to the pot and cook for 4 minutes.

While the potatoes are cooking, roughly chop the basil leaves. Set aside a few leaves for garnish.

Add the penne pasta to the pot with the potatoes and cook for 8 minutes.

In a food processor, combine the chopped basil, minced garlic, cashew nuts, half of the pine nuts (15g), 70ml olive oil, 1/2 tsp salt, and a generous amount of black pepper. Process until smooth to create your basil pesto.

Add the green beans to the pot with the potatoes and penne pasta and cook for 5 minutes, or until the potatoes, beans, and pasta are cooked. Drain the contents of the pot, then return everything to the pot.

Stir the basil pesto into the pot with the potatoes, green beans, and penne pasta, ensuring everything is well coated.

Serve the one-pot pesto penne party in bowls, garnishing with reserved basil leaves, remaining pine nuts, a drizzle of olive oil, and a grind of black pepper. Enjoy!
