Ingredients

  • 6 ounces pasta we used whole wheat spaghetti
  • 1 large ripe Avocado pitted and peel removed
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
  • 1 clove garlic minced
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt or to taste
  • Freshly ground black pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Bring water to a boil in a medium sized pot. Salt the water and add in your pasta, reduce heat to medium, and cook until Al Dente, about 8-10 minutes.
  • While the pasta is cooking, make the sauce by placing the avocado, garlic, lime juice, cilantro, salt and pepper into a food processor or blender. Process until smooth and creamy.
  • When pasta is done cooking, drain and place pasta into a large bowl. Add the sauce to the pasta and toss until pasta is well coated. Season with additional salt and pepper, if desired. Serve immediately.
  • Note: This pasta dish is best eaten the day it is made.
