Avocado Pasta
This pasta is for the serious avocado lover. This creamy avocado pasta with bacon is ready in less than 30 minutes for an easy meal that is perfect for summer.
Ingredients
- 6 oz uncooked pasta
- 3 strips of bacon
- 1 1/2 ripe avocados, pit and skin removed
- 1-2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
- 2 cloves of garlic
- 1/8 tsp cayenne pepper
- 1/8 tsp onion powder
- salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- On the stove, bring water in a pot to boil and add in pasta, cooking to the desired doneness. Drain and set aside. In a pan, cook bacon to desired doneness. Chop bacon to bite-sized pieces.
- In a food processor or blender, add remaining ingredients. Blend on high speed until creamy sauce forms. Add salt and pepper as needed and mix again. If you would like a more liquid sauce, you can add a little more olive oil. I preferred mine to be thicker.
- Toss pasta, avocado sauce, and bacon. Serve immediately.
