Pasta with Avocado and Lemon Sauce

Easy to make and my husband's new favourite, this pasta is a fresh and zesty summer day heaven in your mouth. The original recipe is from The Oh, She Glows Cookbook and can be found here, but I have changed the sauce a bit, mainly on my husband's demand to add more avocados to everything, always. Just mix the following in a blender or magic bullet:

- 2 avocados
- 5 small cloves of garlic
- 1/2 cup of fresh basil 
- Juice of one large lemon
- 1/4 cup of fresh parsley
- 2 tablespoons of olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1/4 cup filtered water or more (to add if it's too creamy)

Combine sauce to your cooked pasta for a delicious, fast, and healthy meal. I also like adding a bit of extra parsley at the end for texture and colour, and of course a fresh basil leaf!

Enjoy!
