Pasta with Avocado Sauce

I’m trying to make more effort with the lunches I make for myself. I want to share one of my favourites at the moment. So, so good! I usually make this when I want to use up left over pasta.

Ingredients

Cooked pasta (I think spaghetti works best)

Half avocado

1 tablespoon cream cheese

Salt & Pepper

Drizzle lemon or lime juice

Optional: If you want a small kick, a teaspoon of sweet chilli sauce is a nice addition

I haven’t tried this one with the family yet, but I will. I would adjust the recipe accordingly and use 2 avocado and 4 tablespoons cream cheese.

Method

1. Cook the pasta as per packet insturctions and set aside.

2. Throw all other ingredients into a food processor or mash it together with a fork. If you find the cream cheese too hard to mix, heat it slightly in the microwave or on the stove top.

3. Toss the avocado sauce through the hot pasta.

Serve: I like to eat it with shavings of parmesen cheese and freshly cut up tomato.

So yummy and easy to whip together in a jiffy.

Another one of my favourite is an easy 2 ingredient flat bread with avocdo slices. Recipe here.
