I first discovered this a few years ago when I created my pea pesto stuffed shells recipe. They’re so good! It’s definitely one of my favorite dinners, especially during the spring. But it’s also one of those meals I reserve for weekends and special occasions, as there’s a bit of work and planning involved. Sometimes I crave the flavors of that dish during the week, so I decided to come up with a dish featuring similar flavors and textures, but in a much simplified format. That’s where this pasta with peas recipe originated! It’s about as easy as a pasta dinner can get, and full of delicious flavors like garlic, fresh basil, and lemon juice. The first thing you’ll want to do is to get your pasta boiling. Since it’s a mostly hands-off task, you can begin making the sauce in the meantime.
