This simple Pasta with Spring Peas deliciously combines the sweetness of peas with the bright flavor of lemon, mellowed by the savory note of leeks.<\/p>\n

A quick saut\u00e9 brings all the flavors together and ready to toss with your favorite pasta. Top with grated parmesan, fresh basil or mint, and you have an outstanding symphony of flavors.<\/p>\n

Sweet peas, bright lemon, and mellow leeks taste amazing together.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

If you can find fresh spring peas, use them! They have an amazing sweet flavor and firm texture that I love in this dish, but frozen peas will taste great, too!\u00a0<\/p>\n

If you\u2019d like to add extra protein, leftover Rotisserie chicken or canellini beans work well in the mix.<\/p>\n

Another Springtime Ingredient: Meyer Lemons<\/h2>\n

The recipe calls for Meyer lemons which have a less acidic flavor than regular lemons and are often in season alongside peas. But regular lemons can be used and will add the same bright notes to the dish.<\/p>\n

\"lemon\"lemon
Meyer lemons are a favorite for springtime recipes. <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Pantry Staple<\/h2>\n

I also use one of my favorite Gluten Free Pantry Staples <\/a>in this recipe- Better Than Bouillon. It is my go-to for soups, stews, and pan sauces. I find the flavor deeper and more complex than dried bouillon (or broth) and it\u2019s much easier to keep on hand than large boxes or cans of broth or stock. You can use the vegetable base version if you want to make the recipe vegetarian.<\/p>\n

\"bowl\"bowl
This Pasta with Spring Peas makes a great weeknight meal because the prep is easy, the pasta is light and refreshing with the vibrant spring flavors. And it can be easily readied while the pasta cooks.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Leftovers?<\/h2>\n

If you have leftover pasta (lucky you!), store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator. To enjoy the pasta the next day, reheat with a touch of water, olive oil, or broth. Top with more parmesan or garnish and enjoy! You can also just allow the pasta to come to room temperature before eating.<\/p>\n
