Pasta with kale and oyster mushrooms! Simple ,delicious, vegan!

It’s pasta time! Woohoo!

Today the star ingredient is kale aka the King of the leafy greens! The rumors say this is one of the most nutrient dense foods on the planet!
Hooray for that! Yummy yummy all that goodness in my tummy!

For pasta I chose whole spelt pasta as a healthier choice. This kind of pasta is not gluten-free but it’s not so heavy to digest as normal wheat pasta. If you are completely intolerant choose a gluten free pasta.

My belly is making glaring sounds again, the impatient one is back! Let us begin then.

Ingredients: 2 servings

250gr. Whole spelt penne,
2 bunches of kale,
250gr. Oyster mushrooms,
1 onion,
Chili flakes (½ tsp or more if desired),
1 big clove of garlic,
A small handful of parsley,
Pepper and salt to taste.

Preparation:
First of all put 2,5l water on the stove.
Wash the kale leaves and start cutting them is small pieces.
Remove the thickest parts of the stems.
Cut the onion in 4 parts and then in small strips.

Add olive oil and a glass of water to a cooking pot together with the kale, onion, mushrooms torn in half, chili and half of the garlic.
Season with pepper and salt, close the lid and let it steam at an average temperature (not too high).

The water should be boiling by now.
Add the pasta and 1tbsp of salt (mineral sea salt). Cooking time is on the package.

Stir every once and awhile in the kale pot to create a good mixture of the flavors. Not longer than 10 minutes.

When the pasta is ready drain the water and mix the penne with the vegetables.

Mix in the rest of the garlic and parsley.

Time to serve!!
Put some deliciousness on your plate and drizzle some good olive oil on top. Sit back, relax and enjoy a good pasta in front of your favorite television show!
