HelloHero: Creamy Plant-Based Mince Pasta

with Chargrilled Capsicum Relish & Greens

Plant-based mince is cooked into a creamy capsicum sauce dotted with pan-fried veggies for a rich and decadent pasta sauce. Stir through some baby leaves at the last minute for a hint of vibrant green.

"We’ve replaced the fusilli in this recipe with penne due to local ingredient availability. It’ll be just as delicious, just follow your recipe card!"
