Dive into a symphony of flavours with this Basil Pesto Pasta, made with a twist. Here’s what makes ours unique:

• We’ve opted for cashew nuts and nutritional yeast. Instead of using the traditional pine nuts and parmesan cheese, we’ve made these substitutions. Cashews are a heart-friendly nut and also provide ample nutrients like magnesium, zinc, and iron. Nutritional yeast is rich in B vitamins, especially B12, which can give you a much-needed boost of energy.
• It’s not a pesto without basil. Basil is loaded with antioxidants which help protect cells from oxidative stress and inflammation. It also boosts anti-inflammatory properties to boost overall health.
• We’ve added more superfoods, thanks to Progressive’s VegeGreens. It helps support your immune and digestive systems, while also supporting your body’s anti-inflammatory response. It also has an enzyme blend to help your body better digest foods.
