Cooking Instructions and Tips
1
- Boil a full kettle. Pour it into a saucepan with 1/2 tsp salt on high heat.
- Boil the spaghetti, 8 mins.
- When the pasta has boiled for 5 mins, add the kale.

- Stir the cooked pasta and kale into the sauce. Mix to combine.
- Remove from the heat.
4
- Stir the peas, pesto and two thirds of the hard Italian style cheese into the pasta. Toss to coat.
