Ingredients

  • 1 medium sized ripe Avocado, pitted
  • 1/2 lemon, juiced
  • 2 garlic cloves, skins removed
  • 1/2 tsp kosher salt, or to taste

Directions

  1. 1
    {"0":"In a medium sized pot, bring several cups of water to a boil. Add in your pasta, reduce heat to medium, and cook until al dente, about 8-10 minutes. Pay attention to your pasta, there's nothing worse than mushy s'getti noodles.","2":"Meanwhile, make the sauce by placing the garlic cloves, lemon juice, and olive oil into a food processor. Process until smooth. Now add in the pitted avocado and salt. Process until smooth and creamy. It will be a lovely shade of green and smell lemony.","4":"When pasta is done cooking, drain and rinse in a strainer and place pasta into a large bowl. Pour on sauce and toss until fully combined. Garnish with lemon zest, black pepper and parsley. Serve immediately.","6":"Note: This dish does not reheat well due to the avocado in the sauce. To experiment, I made both servings (I ate one and refrigerated the other) and left the cold serving out for half an hour and it didn't brown and was pretty tasty slightly cool."}
