This is a beautiful pasta dish that can be served warm or at room temperature as a vegetarian main or alongside most any grilled poultry or fish. I love the taste of the toasted walnuts coupled with the parmesan cheese. I also love that it is a bit different from the traditional “pesto.”
Place parsley, garlic, lemon juice, olive oil, walnuts, cheese, salt and pepper into a food processor and pulse until all ingredients are combined and it resembles pesto. Don’t worry if it seems dry, you will add water at the end.
Cook pasta al dente. Reserve pasta water and drain; put pasta back into pot. Add pesto, pasta water, and peas; stir until pasta is thoroughly coated. Add additional cheese to taste. Serve warm.
Note: To toast walnuts, preheat oven to 275F, spread walnuts over a cookie sheet and toast for 15 minutes.
