Directions

1. Wash and chop all vegetables according to instructions.

3. Meanwhile, heat a medium skillet then add half of the olive oil. Add zucchini and cook for around 3-4 mins, stirring occasionally. Add garlic and kale and cook a further 5 minutes or until zucchini has softened and kale is vibrant green. You can add a splash of water through this process if needed to help cook.
4. Remove pan from heat. Add cooked greens to a blender with the second 1 Tbsp olive oil and all of the remaining ingredients except for the almonds. Blend until smooth.
5. Once pasta has cooked turn off the heat. Reserve approximately 2/3 cup of the cooking water then drain. Add green sauce, spaghetti, and 1/3 cup of the cooking water back to pot. Mix well, adding extra cooking water as needed to loosen the sauce and coat spaghetti.
6. Top with chopped almonds and serve immediately. Enjoy!
