This delicious fresh pasta dish can be eaten warm or cold, and is a take on avocado smash. The perfect combination of creamy avocado, deliciously flavoursome tomatoes, and zingy lime, will make this a regular feature in your ‘Veganuary’ menu. Leftovers could be taken to work for a cold lunch the following day. The Edamame beans give you the protein you need to keep that metabolism firing and feeling full.
If you aren’t fully vegan, and still eat eggs, I think this would be delicious served with a poached egg on top (and of course that means extra protein too!)
