Avocado Sauce Pasta Recipe
My daughter calls this dish guacamole pasta because the sauce of this pasta has almost the same ingredients as guacamole and made by mixing avocado, basil, garlic and olive oil in the food processor. I also use this green pasta sauce with lots of other dishes.
The avocado sauce pasta recipe is so easy. I simply cooked the pasta, mixed all the avocado sauce ingredients using the food processor, and then stirred the pasta in the sauce. I also topped the dish with parmesan cheese, which made it incredibly delicious.
You won't believe how good and tasty this recipe is until you taste it. By the way, this pasta can be eaten cold or hot, so delicious in both cases. This dish is stable in my house; I always serve it with Roasted Chicken With Herbs And Butter or Foil Pack Cajun Chicken And Veggie.
