  2. Bring some water to a boil and add in Cashews. Boil for about 15mins. This will soften the cashews so they can blend well.
  3. Place vegetables on a large baking tray or two. It doesn't need to be spread apart.
  4. Once oven is preheated. Place tray of vegetables in the oven and cook for 20mins.
  5. In a food processor add in softened cashews and some of the hot water slowly as you pulse into a creamy texture.
  6. Add in the rest of the Pesto ingredients and pulse into a gritty texture. Add water to your desired consistency, more for a more saucy pesto. Salt to taste(optional)
  7. Bring water to a boil and begin cooking pasta when the oven time left for the vegetables is about 7-8 minutes. This way everything can be finished at the same time.
  8. Once Vegetables are done, your pasta should also be done. Drain pasta and rinse with strainer under cold water.
  9. Add pesto sauce to cooked pasta and mix. Place vegetables on a plate with pasta. Top with chopped tomatoes and avacado.
  10. Enjoy.

Pour the pesto over your vegetables and toss them to coat. If you went wild with the amount of veggies, and they look a little dry, feel free to add another glug of olive oil, white wine vinegar, and. I usually make my own pizza dough when I'm making a pizza from scratch, but I noticed my local supermarket have a fresh ready rolled pizza dough in their chilled section beside the pastry and decided to give it a go. Now I'm not saying I only ever make pizza from scratch, do any of us? But instead of just a basic pesto pasta I added in a few fresh vegetables, roasted them so they got nice and sweet, and tossed them in the pasta along with the pesto!
