This dish has a double dose of peppery arugula—it’s blended into the pesto, and then raw leaves are tossed with the finished pasta. Switching out the basil for these pungent leaves turns this easy, rustic recipe into a deeply flavored dish, redolent with crunchy greens, citrus, plenty of garlic, and cheese. You can add the protein of your choice, one pound of shrimp would be a great way to go. There is a lot of the terpene caryophyllene going on in this recipe. The pepper, the arugula and the strain Bubba Kush, chosen for the trifecta. This hard-to-pronounce terpene has some pretty impressive health benefits, including relief from pain and stress, and strong anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties making it a win-win-win. This pesto makes a great dip or spread, and a particularly delightful addition to chicken or fish. Want to learn more about cooking with cannabis? Visit laurieandmaryjane.com.
