Directions

Put the nuts and herbs in the food processor and whiz up. The mixture will be fine, but should still have texture, not be completely pulverized.

Cook the spaghetti in boiling, salted water until al dente. Drain. Toss in a bowl with the nuts (reserving some for garnish), olive oil, cheese, and orange zest, to taste, if using. Serve immediately.

    I made this and it was wonderful. I have made it for several friends who also loved the recipe and wanted me to share it with them. I make extra batches of the nut mixture and freeze it so I can make it on short notice.

    Absolutely awesome flavors!! Only change I made was to use garlic flavored olive oil. And next time I will save some pasta water...this time I just added a bit more oil. This will be one of our favorites from now on and I like the idea of adding a veggie or two!
