- 30 g pumpkin seeds
- 100 g sun-dried tomatoes, in strips

- 1 clove garlic, clove, crushed
- 300 ml plant-based cooking cream

Method
- Bring a large pot of salted water to the boil for the pasta.

- Cut the sun-dried tomatoes into strips.
- Cook the pasta al dente in about 6 min. Drain and keep a cup of cooking water.
- Pour the plant-based cream over the mushrooms and add the mustard. Let it warm through over medium-high heat. Roughly chop the spinach and add it to the pan a handful at a time. Let it wilt. Add the sun-dried tomatoes and warm through.
- Loosen the sauce with a little cooking water if needed and stir the pasta through. Season with salt and pepper.
- Serve with the toasted pumpkin seeds and the basil on top.
