Directions
- Fill a large pot with water and bring it to a boil, then salt the water and drop in the pasta. Cook until almost tender, 6–8 minutes.
- In a small saucepan, whisk together hummus, milk, salt, and pepper. Warm over medium heat until gently bubbling, then remove from heat and keep warm covered.
- Chop the roasted peppers and olives; place them in a small bowl.
- Rinse and pat dry the basil, roll it up, and thinly slice into ribbons. Add the basil to the bowl with peppers and olives.
- When the pasta is almost ready, add the kale to the pot and stir until wilted and the pasta finishes cooking, about 2–3 minutes more.
- Drain the pasta and kale, then return them to the pot. Pour in the warm sauce and fold in the peppers, olives, and basil until evenly coated.
- Divide the pasta among bowls, sprinkle crumbled feta on top, and serve.
- Tip: refrigerate any leftovers in a sealed container for up to 2 days. Tip: swap the kale for spinach if you prefer a milder green.
