Avocado Pasta

(This one came from here with a few very minor alterations)

Alright, here is a quick post for a quick meal with no picture (sorry). It is super simple and super good; you could eat it alongside chicken or seafood, or as we did last night, as a light supper on its own. It literally takes less than 15 minutes to make.

Start by bringing a pot of water to a boil. Add thin spaghetti to the water and cook according to package directions.

While waiting for the water to boil and the pasta to cook, scoop out the flesh of 2 avocados; chop them up into smaller pieces and add to the food processor, along with 2-3 minced garlic cloves, the juice of 1 lemon, salt and pepper, and 1 Tablespoon extra virgin olive oil. Let 'er rip until creamy.

Drain pasta and stir in the avocado puree. Top with toasted slivered almonds if desired.

And enjoy!
