Cook leek and baby broccoli, stirring, until softened, 4-5 minutes. • Add garlic and garlic & herb seasoning and cook until fragrant, 1-2 minutes.
• Reduce heat to medium, then add cream (see ingredients), vegetable stock powder and some of the reserved pasta water (1/4 cup for 2 people / 1/2 cup for 4 people) and simmer until slightly thickened, 1-2 minutes. • Add basil pesto, cooked fusilli and baby leaves. Stir to combine and season with salt and pepper. TIP: Add a splash more reserved pasta water if the sauce looks too thick.
• Divide basil pesto and greens fusilli between bowls. • Sprinkle over Parmesan cheese to serve. Enjoy!
