Avocado Pasta


Avocado Pasta
1 pound of pasta ( I used fettuccine)
2 ripe avocados, pitted and scooped
1 lemon, juiced
2 cloves garlic
1/2 cup olive oil
1 handful fresh basil
1/4 tsp. kosher salt
Chopped sun dired tomatoes
Toasted pine nuts
Freshly grated parmesan

Cook pasta and put back into pot when its done.
Take pine nuts (as many as you would like) and toast in a frying pan until the nuts become golden brown. Set aside.

In a blender or food processor, mix avocados, lemon, garlic, olive oil, basil, salt and pepper.
Mix until blended into a creamy consistency.
Spoon sauce onto pasta and mix together until the pasta is coated.
 
Add chopped sun dried tomatoes and pine nuts and toss lightly making sure you same some of both for the top.
