Tuna and Capers Rosé Pasta

There’s just something so delicious and special about Verily combined with fish and seafood! I’ve even noticed that most the recipes you guys are making at home feature some kind of fish- and we are LOVING it! 🇮🇹🍅🍝🌱💃🧑‍🍳🥳 Today we are sharing an incredible recipe from the Verily test kitchen, ty Glori for this delicious and healthy idea using canned Italian tuna, capers + Coconut Rose. While we were making this my husband came into the kitchen to find out what’s cooking, lol, dished himself a bowl and declared it one of the best pastas he’s ever eaten (umm that’s a huge compliment). I think I have your weekday dinner all sorted out- and best part- it will be ready in 20 min. Ps -Pro Tip- transfer cooked pasta right from the water into the sauce. It allows some of that starchy pasta water to cling to the sauce creating an even silkier more luxurious rose! Yummm!!!

Mediterranean Chickpea Stew

Hello spring!! 🌷 We love the change of season🌱- it’s such an inspiring time to eat, think, and do all things that feel and are good for you. Spring represents a season of growth, purpose, renewal, refresh, bright, healthy and light. This is a great season to add more plants, and herbs to your diet. Even growing a few pots on your windowsill or deck is such a great way to test out your green thumb. And of course it’s good for the planet, and good for you. Being a plant-based brand, we love to encourage and inspire you to eat more plants. There are so many important reasons from your health, to budget, and planet. Eating more plant-proteins like lentils and chickpeas are a great place to start! So while the temps are still cool as we transition over to warmer days, let this coconut rose chickpea stew be like a big, healthy hug. It’s SO good!🌱
