Ok, so for dinner tonight I made a Creamed Avocado and Lime Chilled Veggie Pasta. It was DELICIOUS!
Now, I know your all dying for the recipe....so here it is!
Creamed Avocado and Lime Chilled Veggie Pasta
Ingredients
- 1 1/2cup dry shell organic whole wheat pasta or short pasta of your choice (I used a vegetable pasta)
- 1 ripe avocado
- handful of cilantro, roughly chopped
- 1 1/2Tbsp lime juice
- 3Tbsp fat free mayonnaise (I only used 1 because the avocado is creamy enough)
- 1tsp garlic paste
- sea salt & pepper
- chopped cilantro and/or jalapeno for garnish
Instructions
- Cook pasta according to the package instructions. Drain well, set aside to cool.
- Peel avocado and remove the pit. Put it in a food processor together with chopped cilantro, lime juice, mayonnaise and garlic paste. Blend it until it’s creamy. Add salt and pepper to taste. (Cover it with plastic wrap and keep it in a refrigerator if you have time.)
- Transfer the avocado sauce to a medium sized bowl. Add cooked pasta and toss them well. Sprinkle chopped cilantro and/or jalapeno on top.
Notes
You can use chopped jalapeno on top for garnish but you can also put jalapeno in a food processor to blend in the sauce for spiciness.
