I found this recipe and recently tried it. I'm so impressed I had to share! Full of healthy fats, veggies, and whole grain this is a deluxe dinner that tastes great and pampers you from the inside out. It is warm, creamy, flavorful, and extremely easy to make. Just as easy as opening a can of Ragu and adding a few extras. This is a must try recipe!
Ingredients
12 oz. pasta (I used whole wheat spaghetti)
2 ripe avocados, pitted and scooped
1 lemon, juiced
2 cloves garlic
1/4 cup olive oil
1 handful fresh basil
1/4 tsp. kosher salt
Freshly grated parmesan cheese
Directions
1. Set a medium-sized pot of salted water to boil. Add pasta, reduce heat slightly and cook until al dente, 8-10 minutes.
2. In a food processor, combine avocado flesh, lemon juice, garlic, olive oil, basil and salt. Blend until smooth and creamy. Set aside in a large bowl.
3. Transfer cooked pasta to the bowl. Toss with avocado mixture and freshly grated parmesan. Serve with additional grated parmesan, if desired.
