Pesto Linguine with Green Beans & Artichoke Hearts recipe

I love to try to incorporate as many vegetables as possible into my meals – after all, how many of us actually get the recommended dose of veggies at each meal? Pasta dishes are one of the easiest ways to get additional vegetables into your diet, so I decided to find some new linguine + vegetable recipes, and also try pairing wine with them.

These 2 fun recipes – a super easy version and a look-like-a-chef version – plus 1 great wine to go with them both. Both recipes use one of my favorite vegetables, artichoke, which is a difficult food to pair with wine, but what wine goes with artichoke, pesto, green beans and lemon?

I found the winning variety…read all about it.

Wine Pairing: Verdicchio

Verdicchio with artichokes

You need a wine with high acidity to pair with artichokes and something from Italy to match the food style. And a white wine since it’s a late summer dinner, pretty light with green vegetables and plenty of freshness. A Verdicchio is perfect for this! It’s crisp and snappy, matching the acidity of the artichokes and lemon, and creating some summer sizzle in your mouth.
