This vegan creamy green pasta is like a garden in a bowl. Baby spinach blends with lemon,
herbs, and white beans to create a silky, nutrient-packed sauce that feels light but tastes
indulgent.
6–8 oz dry pasta (penne, fusilli, or your favorite shape)
5 oz Earthbound Farm Baby Spinach
½ cup cooked white beans (cannellini or navy), drained and rinsed

2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley (optional but brightens flavor)
1 tbsp chopped fresh chives or scallions (optional)
⅛–¼ tsp salt, to taste
2–4 tbsp reserved pasta water (for blending)
1 tbsp olive oil (optional for a silkier sauce)
Freshly cracked black pepper, for serving

creamy and pourable. For extra richness, blend in olive oil.
