This creamy cavolo nero and bean pasta is one of the most delicious ways to eat your greens. We’ve blitzed up cannellini beans to create a super creamy sauce, while upping the fibre and plant protein content.

    A bit confused by how to use the kale. In step 1 do I blanch just the stems, just the leaves or both? In step 4 which kale elements are being blitzed?

    Thanks Roger! In step 1, remove and discard the stems, then blanch and blitz the de-stemmed cavolo nero in steps 1 and 4. We've edited the recipe to make this clear!

    The amount of cannellini beans needed is unclear. Also, I presume it means canned, but this could be made clearer too 😉

    Added extra garlic and the juice of the lemon which made it okay - without it would have been quite bland. Next time I will zest and juice 2 lemons to play with the acidity.

    Ingredients say drained beans and then method asks you to use some of their liquid. Would be helpful to flag that in the ingredients section

    Couldn't get the sauce consistency right but it was still good. Added Halloumi to try and get more flavour without adding in excessive salt and it was really delicious! Could probably add in sun dried tomato too!

    Was really excited about this one, but a bit bland even with a bit of extra garlic
