Instructions
Cook the pasta
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook Brami curly macaroni according to package instructions until al dente. Reserve 1 cup of pasta water, then drain.
Build the flavor base

Blend into sauce
- Transfer the mixture to a blender (or use an immersion blender). Blend until smooth, adding more pasta water as needed for creaminess.
Toss the pasta
- Return the sauce to the pan, add the cooked pasta, and toss until every noodle is coated in the creamy kale sauce.
Finish with freshness
- Season to taste with salt and pepper. Add fresh herbs and a squeeze of lemon juice before serving.
