Steps

• Boil a large pot of water and add salt. Cook the pasta according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
• Avocado Pesto
• In a food processor, combine the avocado, basil, garlic, lemon juice, olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Blend until smooth and creamy.
• In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked pasta and avocado pesto sauce. Toss until the pasta is well coated with the sauce.

• Add some cherry tomatoes or grilled chicken for extra flavor and protein.

Information

• Avocado pesto is a healthier alternative to traditional pesto sauce, as it replaces the high-fat cheese and nuts with creamy avocado.
