Farro Ditalini, Fresh Peas and Pecorino

pecorino cheese

🥗Healthier: nutritional yeast

💰Cheaper: parmesan cheese

Nutritional yeast provides a cheesy flavor with fewer calories.

fresh peas

🥗Healthier: frozen peas

💰Cheaper: canned peas

Frozen peas are often more affordable and retain nutrients.

Put a pot of water (2 quarts approx.) to boil.

Shell the peas (and eat a few, they are so delicious and fresh!).

Chop the onion and sizzle in 1 tbsp of EVOO, cook through at medium heat for about three minutes, then add the peas.

Once water is boiling, add 1 tablespoon of salt and pour pasta in boiling water.

Stir occasionally so that it doesn’t stick.

Cook for the suggested time on pack, but our tip is to always try one before draining, you want to cook it ‘al dente’.

When ready, drain, add to the pan and stir into sauce.

Add some pepper, raw EVOO and grated Pecorino.
