Vegetable Pesto Bucatini Recipe

Ingredients

• 9 ounces Bucatini Pasta (Spaghetti or similar noodle will work great too!)

• 1 cup Thrive Life Onions Slices (can substitute Thrive Life chopped onions)
• 1 ½ cups Pesto Sauce
• 1 ¾ cups Water

Directions

1. Fill a large pot with water and bring to a boil. Add pasta and boil for 8-10 minutes or until tender. Strain and set aside.

2. While pasta is cooking, in a medium sauté pan add water, 1 tablespoon butter or oil of your choice, butternut squash, broccoli, tomato dices, and onion slices. Simmer until water has evaporated, and then sauté 1-2 minutes.

​Why use Thrive Life foods?

Thrive food is different than any other kind you’ll find on the market.

• These foods won’t spoil in a few days…or even a few weeks. They’re good.
• You won’t be thawing, degreasing, or cutting raw meat.
• You won’t be chopping veggies or washing and peeling fruit.
• There’s an extra burst of flavor you won’t find anywhere else! Just take a bite!
• Just toss in any meal or refresh (rehydrate) in warm water.
• ​Free of GMOs, preservatives, artificial nonsense and chemical junk​
• ​The Nutrilock Promise! It's our little secret that makes our food higher in nutrients and freeze-dried fresh all year long. It's a rigorous 41 step process that one we own, and that it takes that wild, naturally ripened food and gently locks in the nutrients and flavor without the use of preservatives. Can the grocery store do that?​​
