I have a weakness for pasta. I don't eat it very often but when I do, I feel guilty from the rich laden cream sauces I am drawn to.I was super excited that at a dinner party I hosted, my guests were open to trying something new, tasty and raw too! This recipe is perfect for those of you hosting a green St. Paddy's Day themed dinner without too many of the calories consumed by other green tinged things (i.e beer)!
We made a creamy Avocado sauce for our delicious Pear and Pecorino (Italian Cheese) Ravioli.
What you will need:
1-2 Medium Avocados
1 bunch fresh Basil
1/2 tsp of Garlic
Fresh Lemon Juice to Taste
Salt and Pepper
Put it all in a blender until smooth and Voila! Your creamy, avocado pesto is ready for cooked pasta.By the way, I got this amazing pasta from Costco.
