Creamy Avocado Pasta Linguini
Spring officially begins next week and I'm so excited! It's my absolute FAVORITE season. Which I'm sure everyone says lol but it really is the best. The days are nice and long, the temperature is still bearable here in the Houston, and nature is just THRIVING! And with the Spring season, my taste buds crave fresher/brighter foods! Re-made one of the FIRST things I ever learned to cook the other day. Using @taste_republic's Gluten & Grain Free Cauliflower Linguini which was the PERFECT addition.

🍴Serving Size: 2
Ingredients:
1 package Cauliflower Linguini (9 oz.)
Greens - I used a Spinach, Arugala & Herbs Mix
Cherry Tomatoes, halved
Avocado Sauce -
1 large Avocado
1/3 cup loosely packed Cilantro (or 5-6 Basil leaves)
2 cloves Garlic, minced

Himalayan Pink Salt & Black Pepper, to taste
Instructions:
Start by boiling a pot of water & cooking your pasta according to package instructions.
Meanwhile, add the remaining ingredients to a blender & blend until creamy.
Drain & rinse your pasta. Add back to your pot & mix in your avocado sauce.
Add in your greens & tomatoes.
Serve your pasta with some parmesan & red crushed pepper!
Notes & Tips:
This dish is best eaten fresh! The avocado doesn't taste too good the next day so definitely recommend eating it all while it's nice and hot.
You can obviously use any pasta you like! The amount just may vary a bit so be aware of your pasta to sauce ratio.
