Cooking Steps
- Before starting, preheat the oven to 450˚F.
- Wash and dry all produce.
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil (use same for 4 servings).
- To the boiling water, add spaghetti. Cook, uncovered, for 10-12 min, stirring occasionally, until tender.
- Reserve 1/3 cup (2/3 cup) pasta water, then drain and return spaghetti to the same pot, off heat.
- Meanwhile, cut tomato into 1/4-inch pieces.
- Thinly slice basil.
- Halve buns.
- Peel, then cut shallot into 1/4-inch pieces.
- Peel, then mince or grate garlic.
- Drain, then roughly chop olives.
- To a medium bowl, add tomatoes, shallots, olives, garlic, half the basil, balsamic vinegar and 2 tbsp (4 tbsp) oil. Season with Italian Herb Spice Blend, salt and pepper, then stir to combine.
- On a foil-lined baking sheet, arrange buns cut-side up.
- Spread pesto on buns. Sprinkle half the plant-based cheese over top. Toast in the middle of the oven for 5-6 min, until edges are golden. (TIP: Keep an eye on buns so they don't burn!)
- To the pot with spaghetti, add reserved pasta water and bruschetta mixture, then bring to a simmer over medium-high. Once simmering, cook for 3-5 min, stirring often, until fragrant. Season with salt and pepper.
- Divide spaghetti between bowls. Sprinkle some chili flakes over top, if you like. (TIP: 1/8 tsp is mild, 1/4 tsp is medium and 1/2 tsp is spicy!)
- Sprinkle remaining plant-based cheese and basil over top.
- Serve cheesy pesto toast alongside.
