Spring is in the air all year long when you make this recipe – Spring Pesto Gluten-free Spaghetti! Its light, fresh, full of healthy ingredients and a must-try.
You can use regular spaghetti of course, but I always cook gluten-free for me. Another option to switch this up and to make a no-grain version is to prepare recipe minus spaghetti. Instead cook 6 cups fresh spinach and then add the rest of the ingredients. So you are basically making a super fresh sauce to top onto your just cooked spinach.
