PASTA WITH GREEN BEANS AND CHERRY TOMATOES

Pasta dishes are a certainty, they always taste great and always ask for more :) And the preparation time does not exceed 30 minutes. In winter, I reach for frozen vegetables because I miss green beans and peas a lot. The cherry on the top in this recipe is vegan parmesan, which I also use in sandwiches, salads and soups.

Ingredients:

(for two or three person)

• 200 g green beans (frozen in my case)
• 7 cloves of garlic
• 10 cherry tomatoes
• 12 black olives marinated in salt (pitted)
• 2 cm of chilli peppers
• 4 tablespoons of olive oil
• a handful of parsley or cilantro
• for serving: chilli flakes, vegan parmesan, lime

Instructions:

1. Cook the pasta according to the recipe on the package.
2. In the meantime, cook the beans for about 5 minutes, drain them and put them on the grill pan.
3. Sprinkle with olive oil and fry until the grill strips appear on each side of the beans.
4. Heat up the olive oil in a frying pan, add chopped garlic, tomato halves and chilli pepper.
5. Make sure the garlic does not burn. Finally,  add olives.
6. Drain the cooked pasta and add to the pan, mix thoroughly.
7. Serve with grilled beans.
8. Sprinkle with lime juice, parsley (coriander), chilli flakes and vegan parmesan .
