I tried making pasta with a healthier sauce–so I picked one based on guacamole.  I know, I know.  Those of you who know me can’t believe I made myself pasta.  I was having a craving.  Anyway, here’s what you need to make what I did:

1 ripe avocado

1 tomato

Half an onion

Garlic

Whole wheat pasta

Mozzarella Cheese (I used freshly made from whole milk)

Salt

Pepper

Set up your pot to boil, put in your pasta.  While that’s going, blend everything except for the pasta and mozzarella together until satisfied.  I went for a super creamy consistency for easy mixing, but if you like chunks, I suggest baking your tomatoes and adding those after you blend the avocado.

After your pasta is done, mix your chopped up cheese and sauce.  You should get this:

I really enjoyed the pasta–it satisfied my craving, and the sauce was really creamy without being too heavy.  Om nom nom.  I suggest trying it out!
