This creamy and delicious green pasta doesn't take much effort to whip together. It makes a pretty big batch too, so it can be enjoyed with the whole family, or pack up any leftovers for a tasty next-day lunch or dinner.
Prepare the leek by cutting off the root and the overly fibrous green parts. Cut the leek in half, wash in between the layers thoroughly, and then thinly slice the leek. Thinly slice the garlic and green onions, and mince the jalapeño.
Cut the stem off the head of broccoli. Cutaway the fibrous outer layer. Chop the remaining stem and green tops of the broccoli into small bite-sized pieces, but keep them separated.
To a large pot on high heat, add the oil. When hot, add in the leek, broccoli stems, garlic, green onion, jalapeño, and salt. Cook for 5 minutes.
Then add the peas, spinach, basil, oregano, and mint, cooking for another 5 - 6 minutes.
Meanwhile, cook the pasta according to the package instructions, adding the broccoli florets in the last couple of minutes.
Just before draining the noodles and broccoli, scoop out ½ cup (120 mL) cooking water from pasta and add to the pan with the vegetables.
Add the cooking cream to the pan with the vegetables, and stir to combine.
You can leave this pasta sauce chunky, or make it smooth by blending it using an immersion blender or standing blender. We chose to blend about half of our sauce, making it part-chunky and part-smooth.
Add the drained pasta and broccoli to the sauce, and toss to coat.
Add the lemon juice, and serve while hot. Garnish as desired. Enjoy!

This is so deliciously creamy! I added the whole sauce to the blender to make it smooth before I stirred it through the pasta, as my other half isn't too keen on the stalks from broccoli. It's such a great way of getting a ton of greens in you and not to mention the protein too! I was a bit skeptical that this might come out too "veggie", but the flavours really work together and nothing is overpowering. Super quick to make after a busy day too!
PUL Team - April 1, 2024, 9:03 a.m.
Hi Rob, blending the sauce for a smoother texture is a great idea. So happy to hear you enjoyed the pasta! Always a win when a dish turns out flavourful and quick to prepare 😃

Karo - March 10, 2024, 12:09 p.m.
I've been making it on repeat for such a long time. I always use regular onion instead of leek (because I keep forgetting to buy it) and never add anything spicy as I don't have much tolerance for it. I make my own cashew cream by blending soaked cashews with water and top it with some hard cheese (sorry, I'm vegetarian) and hemp seeds or/and roasted sunflower seeds. It's truly perfect. I don't like second day pasta to I keep the sauce separately (or even freeze it sometimes) and only cook fresh pasta whenever I want to eat it.

Molly - Nov. 30, 2022, 5:13 a.m.
Hi! I made the pasta yesterday. It's a great recipe. When washing the leek, however, I think I didn't do a very thorough job. It looked clean, and I could not see any brown dirt, so I washed it only briefly. Turns out the pasta was a little gritty when eating. Is it safe to eat (albeit unpleasant)? Or is it best to throw it out?! I still have one serve left :/
Thank you!
PUL Team - Dec. 1, 2022, 4:41 p.m.
Hey Molly, oh no! Dirt often gets trapped within the layers of leeks so we recommend washing them thoroughly even if it looks clean. We've updated the line in the recipe slightly to help others avoid this. Since the dish is cooked it's likely safe to eat, though it's up to you. We hope this helps for now and thank you for taking the time to share your experience with the pasta 😊
Molly - Dec. 3, 2022, 1:18 p.m.
Thanks for your response... I ended up not eating that add serve.. i was fine other than that it felt gritty to eat. Have noted that it needs to be washed properly even if it looks clean..I might skip leek next time altogether haha.. thanks heaps for updating the recipe too. I think it will help people new to cooking with leek.

Hi PUL team Can i store the left over sauce in the freezer?

Hi there, Sharon, we haven't tested it out so we can't say with absolute certainty. We imagine that the soy cooking cream may separate when thawed impacting the texture of the sauce. This tends to be the case with freezing cream-based sauces, although we've had some positive reviews for our One-Pot Creamy Mushroom Pasta if you're interested (pickuplimes.com/recipe/one-po…). If you do test this one out in the freezer though, we'd love to hear how it goes 😊

Hi Casey! We hope the recipe was enjoyed. In case you're interested, full fat coconut milk can be substituted for the cooking cream and may taste more mellow 😊

This was delicious and simple to make! Lots of greens here. I used frozen broccoli. This would be even tastier with a side of lemon if I hadn’t run out. I’m definitely keeping this one! 9/10! Thank you for your healthy and delicious recipes.

I made this dish for my parents who are mostly used to meats cooked the Romanian way, really heavy and tasty so I was afraid they might not enjoy it to the fullest. Not only did they enjoy it but were asking me when I was cooking it again. I love how all the tastes combine, the texture is amazing and the green colour... amazing experience is a dish!

I've made this twice– the first time it was amazing and a HUGE hit! The second time it was pretty eh. I don't really know what changed, but I'm planning on giving it another go since it's a great way to get some greens in and so easy. I served some as pasta salad too and that was almost better than having it warm!

PUL Team - June 5, 2021, 6:37 p.m.
Hi Beatrice! Feel free to substitute the jalapeño for any chili you have access to! Perhaps you may have better luck with Serano or Habanero peppers? If you're finding that tricky, chili flakes or jarred chilis may be other ideas to try if you're looking for a bit of spice 🤗

Wow this turned out way more flavorful than I had anticipated! Love the fact that it is packed full of such a variety of greens. Will definitely be making this often. Thanks Sadia!
Wonderful recipe!
I did not have a Jalapeño, but I did have pickled Jalapeños - turned out delicious!
Simple and vibrant! Great for the summer lunch:)
Super tasty! I ate it with some Sriracha on top which gave it some tang and brightness. Absolutely delicious recipe!!!
Absolutely delicious and very easy to make
Love how quickly this goes together and how tasty it is!
Such a great way to add greens 😍 I had some roasted squash and seeds on the side and it was so good 😍
Husband and I loved it! For us it was enough for 2 dinners for both of us and a lunch for me. Next time we'll add a little more heat, but our jalapeno was very mild.
the absolute winner!😋
Vibrant and fresh but very leek forward!
Very nice one! I added some fresh olive oil on top, that was lovely
This is so deliciously creamy! I added the whole sauce to the blender to make it smooth before I stirred it through the pasta, as my other half isn't too keen on the stalks from broccoli. It's such a great way of getting a ton of greens in you and not to mention the protein too! I was a bit skeptical that this might come out too "veggie", but the flavours really work together and nothing is overpowering. Super quick to make after a busy day too!
I've been making it on repeat for such a long time. I always use regular onion instead of leek (because I keep forgetting to buy it) and never add anything spicy as I don't have much tolerance for it. I make my own cashew cream by blending soaked cashews with water and top it with some hard cheese (sorry, I'm vegetarian) and hemp seeds or/and roasted sunflower seeds. It's truly perfect.
I don't like second day pasta to I keep the sauce separately (or even freeze it sometimes) and only cook fresh pasta whenever I want to eat it.
Mild and creamy but still full of flavour!
My husband and I really enjoyed this dish! I love all the greens in this recipe and it’s a great recipe to make on a weeknight!
Fantastic, especially in cold weather! I omitted the jalapeno and added pepper instead. But I am way too slow so it got a little hectic when the Pasta was supposed to be prepared within 6 minutes. Lesson learned for next time. Really delicious!!!
Delicious ! Plus you feel already great and healthy just by seeing your plate is so green ! :D
Super good! Squash helps thicken the sauce a bit more too if you wanted to add more veggie variety
I loved this one! Such a good quick recipe for batch cook lunches. Only edit I made was using basil as my herb, and added nutritional yeast on top :)
I made this and it was easy and sooo delicious. It’s one of my fav pasta dishes now!
Made it the first time today and it was a big hit!!! Everything is so well explained and the video made it very easy to follow. Quick and easy recipe. I used whole wheat pasta instead, really a recommendation for everyone!
Bland, not up to PUL normal standards! Would add nutritional yeast, stock cube and some fresh herbs if I made again
This is staple from now on! So good!!!
Will surely make again and again! Amazing recipe
I really love this pasta. Comfort food!
Love this!
It is such a comfort meal. Making it very easy, and you can do it with any combination. I didn't have pees and spinach, so I added cabbage instead. It was still amazing! 🤗 thanks for the recipe ❤️💚
This is so delicious! Easy to make, tasty, great for work lunches.
Quick and easy comfort meal😍
So delicious! Had leeks I didn’t know what to do with and this recipe was perfect ❤️
Very tasty & comforting dish, I’ll surely make this again.
I wish I could give this recipe 10 stars. I’ve been making it for awhile now and it’s become one of my favourites on this app. It has all my favourite vegetables in it and it’s just so good! The only substitute I do is change the mint seasoning to dill. So tasty!
Super tasty! I had not taken spinach and instead zucchini.
A wonderful, variable dish.
My son it was "too green", but still everything was devoured.
Thxxxxx
My kids looked at me like I was a crazy person when I made this pasta for dinner, because, well…it’s so green 😅 But they ended up loving it! Thank you for all your lovely recipes!
Greetings from Luxembourg! 🇱🇺
This dinner is officially going into our meal rotation! We all loved it!!
This is one of my favorite recipes ever. Thanks so much for sharing!!!
Not even finished and I had to comment. SO good.
This is SO good!
Creamy and really good
Easy to get your greens in 👌🏻 I served this on top of lentil Pasta for more protein 😍
Amazing!!!
This is one of our family's runaway favourite dinners. Really quick to prepare on a week night and so tasty that there are rarely any leftovers for lunch!!
Loved this one!
This has been my to go meal for almost 3 years now, I think.
Hugs from inside ❤️
Very tasty and green! :) I made it multiple times already. Most of the time I do add some soy milk (next to the soy cream) to make it more 'moist'.
I made this one for my grandparents, as grandma can mo longer stand for too long and cook herself, and they both thoroughly enjoyed it 😊 This is a bit spicy, but luckily they both can and enjoy eating hot foods 😉
We were looking for some new healthy dinner ideas and found this recipe, which we fell in love with only by looking at you make it :) the colour, the texture and the ingredients looked so right that we just had to give it a try.

Ideal for a bad day. Made me happy.
Thanks!
Hi!
I made the pasta yesterday. It's a great recipe. When washing the leek, however, I think I didn't do a very thorough job. It looked clean, and I could not see any brown dirt, so I washed it only briefly. Turns out the pasta was a little gritty when eating. Is it safe to eat (albeit unpleasant)? Or is it best to throw it out?! I still have one serve left :/
Thank you!
Love this recipe! Love that it's nutritious and delicious!
This has become our go-to pasta recipe, my boyfriend and I love it so much! Thank you for your amazing work, we are big fans! :)
I cannot believe a pasta which came together in less than 30 minutes with so many veggies can be this tasty 🤤 Thank you for this recipe. It’ll be on rotation for our dinners.
I love this recipe!! I've made this pasta sauce many times and it is absolutely delicious!!
My boyfriend sometimes mealpreps this recipe for four lunches, he really likes it! We don't change the recipe, except that we sometimes use either chickpea or red lentil pasta to add a bit more protein.
Tastes delicious! :)
This is delicious - tastes so fresh. I made it with gluten free pasta and lots of fresh herbs. Now added to my ‘make again’ folder.
I made this for dinner tonight. It is very yummy. Used whole grain penne, because I couldn't find fusilli. I think this is the first time I've cooked with leeks! Exciting! I did add a bit more salt before serving. Thanks for sharing this recipe!
Another amazing recipe!! So tasty and easy to make! I don’t have an immersion blender or standing blender so decided to use my Nutri Ninja blender to blend up half of the veggie mixture.. it worked but I would not recommend as it did result in an explosion of sorts.. 😅 The pasta was still 10/10!! I think maybe even my favourite recipe so far! 💚
Another delicious meal (: swaped peas for edamame and pasta for chickpea pasta to add extra protein and loved it!
I just tried this... omg it's awesome. I made some modifications: used macaroni pasta(200 gm only), oat evaporated milk instead of soy cream (I think any non dairy milk would go perfectly), and sprinkled nutritional yeast on top. I also used fresh spinach instead of frozen. It turned out very well. I added some extra salt, white pepper, and more mint and basil on top. Thank you for all your amazing recipes. 👏 :)
Thank you for this recipe! I have been overeating for a long time and now struggle to find recipes that are healthy but filling and satisfying. This one is definitely it! I put two full cups of peas and half the indicated cream and it was still very creamy and smooth.
Delicious, wholesome and fast recipe, ideal for students at their busy times!
I wasn't certain how this was going to taste but I'm so glad I gave it a chance! It's a wonderful, creamy recipe that is going to be made when I get my pasta cravings. Thank you, Sadia!
Quick and yummy way to make anyone eat more greens :) the mint creates really interesting and non-conventional taste! Well done Sadia and the whole PUL team <3
My go-to pasta recipe, very simple and delicious! :)
Super easy and quick to make, creamy, and absolutely delicious 😋
Great recipe and easy to make! 👍
This recipe quickly became part of our fortnightly meal rotation! It's super easy to make, and absolutely packed with flavour. It's also super forgiving if you use substitutes, or add extra veggies. We tend to add some sweet corn along with the peas for a bit of extra sweetness. Definitely recommend!
So easy and comforting, even the process of cooking all those greens makes me smile! And it's the recipe that made me give leeks a chance.
One of my all time favorite comfort meals! So delicious in both taste and texture and really easy to make - I like to serve it with some pan-fried gnocchi, and it's always a big hit!
such a wonderful new tasting recipe! Ugh... I just love all your pastas so much. Unfortunately, I think I've now run through all the pastas posted. I love them all and will make them a million times over.
Hi PUL team Can i store the left over sauce in the freezer?
Hi everyone! I tried the Creamy green leak and pea pasta recipe. Very delicious. I didn't have soy cream so I substituted with some coconut milk. It looks, smells and tastes amazing. Thank you so much!
This recipe is really yummy and it's the second time I'm making it! Unfortuneatly the supermarket had no soy cooking cream, so I've had to use vegan sour cream instead. Hopefully it will still be nice!

I did this recipe for lunch and of course I expected it to be good but it was even better than I imagined. I put 450 g of frozen soy beans (for 5 people) instead of green peas and it was perfect. Thanks for this recipe !
Thanks for sharing a wonderfu healthy green recipe. I was wondering if I can use fresh spinach instead of frozen spinach?
