Avocados! Yum! One of the best foods ever. Both for tastebuds and health. They are also super easy to make a meal with. This time: avocado sauce. Soooo creamy, yet involving no cream, flour, and/or butter at all.
Avocado Sauce
Ingredients:
6-8 oz box whole wheat pasta
1 avocado
2 garlic cloves
1/4 onion
1 tbsp basil
1 tbsp parsley
1 tbsp cilantro
1/4 tsp garlic powder
1/4 tsp crushed red pepper flakes
2 tbsp lime juice
salt and pepper to taste
Directions:
It doesn’t get much easier than this. Cook the pasta according to box instructions and set aside. Place all other ingredients in a food processor and pulse until smooth. Pour and mix in the avocado sauce with the pasta.
