Bring a big pot of water to boil. Season with a pinch of salt and cook your pasta of choice according to package instructions. (Total cook time will vary depending on which type of pasta you choose)
In the meantime, put all of your ingredients for the sauce into a (high-speed) blender and blend until smooth.
The stronger the blender, the smoother your sauce will turn out.
Taste sauce and adjust seasoning. For a thinner sauce gradually add more broth/ oil.
Toss your cooked pasta sauce with the sauce.
Garnish with some extra olive oil, parmesan or fresh green herbs and serve immediately.

Notes
Vegan: Simply choose vegan parmesan or nutritional yeast instead.
Gluten-Free: Choose a gluten-free pasta of choice.
Oil-Free: For an oil-free green pasta sauce replace the oil with more vegetable broth.
More Olive Oil: If you wanted an oilier consistency, you could easily replace parts of the vegetable broth with olive oil. Make sure to add one tablespoon of olive oil at a time until you end up with your desired consistency.
Optional Add-Ins: (vegan) feta, chili or red pepper flakes, oven-roasted vegetables (e.g. asparagus, cherry tomatoes), legumes (chickpeas, lentils).
