This easy recipe for pasta with creamy spinach hummus sauce takes your favorite dip and transforms it into a rich sauce without a drop of cream. Dinner magic!

Ingredients

Scale
  • 8 ounces pasta (we like a short pasta like penne or campanelle, but you be you!)
  • 4 cups baby spinach
  • ½ cup hummus
  • Juice from ½ lemon
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • ½ cup grated parmesan, plus extra for garnish
  • Chopped fresh parsley for garnish
  • Fresh ground black pepper

Instructions

  1. Cook pasta according to package directions in salted water. Add the spinach to the pasta during the last minute of cooking. Scoop out a cup of pasta water before you drain it.
  2. Return the pasta to the pot and add the hummus, lemon juice, butter and cheese. Drizzle in just enough of the reserved pasta water to make a light sauce.
  3. Divide among plates, garnish with parsley, cheese and a grinding of black pepper and serve!
