Shopping List
  • 1 1/2 pounds Yukon gold potatoes
  • 3 ounces fresh spinach (about 3 handfuls)
  • 3/4 cup frozen peas
  • 1/4 cup vegan basil pesto (store-bought or homemade)
  • 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon mayonnaise (vegan or classic, Note 1)
  • lemon juice, to taste
  • salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions
  1. Step 1: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
  2. Step 2: Chop the skin-on potatoes into 1 inch pieces. Toss with 1 tablespoon of the olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Roast for 30 to 40 minutes, or until the potatoes are fork-tender and golden brown. Stir the potatoes halfway through the cooking time.
  3. Step 3: Meanwhile, heat a frying pan over medium-high heat with the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Add the spinach and cook until wilted, about 2 to 3 minutes. Add in the still-frozen peas and cook for 1 minute more. Set aside.
  4. Step 4: Combine the warm roasted potatoes, spinach mix, pesto, and mayonnaise. Squeeze in some lemon juice and season with salt and pepper. Add more pesto and/or mayo for a creamier consistency.
  5. Serve: Enjoy warm.

Recipe Notes

Note 1: A non-dairy sour cream or thick plain yogurt could also work in place of the mayo.
