Tahini mushroom pasta

27 Jan 2021

This must be one of my easiest vegan mains every. Tahini is such a superfood, super delicious and high in protein and it works really well even in pasta dishes. Especially if you combine it with the earthy flavour or mushrooms! But don't worry, if you don't like mushrooms you can just replace them with another ingredient like peas and you still get an amazingly delicious pasta dish.

If you like easy and wholesome vegan dishes then I can only recommend this one. So quick and easy and it can all be prepared in one pan (apart from the paste). So there is less washing up to do.

This recipe is also fool-proof. You can make it with any pasta and any mushrooms. Just pop down your local supermarket and pick up the ingredients and you are ready to roll.
