zucchini pasta with creamy avocado sauce

This is a delicious, hearty meal that you will want to eat every single day.

creamy avocado sauce
1 medium avocado, peeled and pitted
Juice of 1 small lemon
3 tbsp olive oil
3 tbsp water
8 fresh basil leaves
freshly ground black pepper to taste
freshly ground sea salt to taste

Place all ingredients in a blender or food processor and puree until mixture is the consistency of sour cream.  Add more sea salt and pepper to taste.  Set aside while you make your zucchini pasta.
*You will only need 1/2 of the avocado sauce to make the zucchini pasta recipe below.



zucchini pasta
1/2-1 cup of cooked wheat pasta (I use Barilla Plus)
1 medium zucchini shredded on grater to resemble strings of spaghetti (discard center with seeds)
1/2 of the creamy avocado sauce
1 small tomato chopped
1 tbsp pine nuts
1-2 tbsp raw goat cheese shredded
freshly ground black pepper to taste
freshly ground sea salt to taste

In a large bowl, combine hot pasta with raw zucchini.  This way the pasta will wilt your zucchini.  Add 2-3 tbsp of the creamy avocado sauce and combine all together.  Transfer to a smaller serving dish.  Spoon the remaining creamy avocado sauce on top of the pasta.  Add chopped tomato, pine nuts and goat cheese.  Season with freshly ground black pepper and sea salt.
Makes 1 serving.

I have been buying vine ripened tomatoes, about 8 at a time, quartering and roasting at 275 for 2.5 to 3 hrs. Sprinkle with herbs and drizzle olive oil first. I always did this on high. Lowering the temperature makes a huge difference. They go with everything...

Jeanette, this sounds heavenly. Can't wait to try it. A great replacement for alfredo sauce.
