If you’ve been a reader around here for a while then you probably already know that I’m always on the hunt for quick and easy dinner ideas, so when I found this Avocado Pasta I fell in love.

First, because it sounds super fancy when in reality is one of the easiest dishes you’ll prepare. Second because it’s incredibly delicious!! And third because it’s fresh and perfect for Spring.

To make the Avocado Pasta you don’t need a lot of ingredients. Actually you probably already have on hand everything you need. Avocadoes, garlic, lemon juice, salt, and pepper, some oil and pasta. Yes, that’s it. You can also add some basil and parmesan cheese if you want to really take it to the next level, but if you want to keep it low key those first 7 ingredients are more than enough.

Also, this recipe is weeknight friendly because it takes around 15 minutes to make.

Yes!! Avocado Pasta it’s actually a 15 minutes meal, amazing right?

My trick to have it done in that time is to start making the pasta and at the same time making the sauce. Once the pasta is ready just top it with a heaping amount of avo pesto and serve, so delicious!

And yes, you only need your food processor/blender to make the sauce. Throw everything in and pulse until creamy (usually 2 minutes) and you are all set. Sometimes I like to also add some chicken to make it more hearty, and sometimes I just make the sauce and use it as a sandwich spread, it’s also delicious as a dip (as you can see this sauce it’s pretty much a superhero!) served with some chips and maybe some spicy salsa.
