AVOCADO PASTA WITH SHRIMPS

AVOCADO PASTA WITH SHRIMP

 MAKES 2 SERVINGS

 Ingredients:

1 Avocado, pitted
½ Lemon, juiced
1 Garlic Clove
2 Tbsp. Extra Virgin Olive Oil + 1 Tbsp.
2 servings/6 oz. of your choice of pasta (I used Spelt)
8-12 oz. Shrimps
Salt and Pepper, to taste

Directions:

1.      In a pot, bring water to a boil and add in your pasta. Follow cooking instructions on the box.

2.     Meanwhile, in a food processor add the garlic cloves, lemon juice, avocado and olive oil. Process until smooth and creamy.

3.      In a saucepan, heat a tbsp. of olive oil and sauté shrimps until they turn pink, then season with the spices of you choice. I like using Cajun spices.

4.     When pasta is done cooking, drain in strainer and place pasta into a large bowl. Pour on sauce and toss until fully combined. Optional: Serve with freshly grated Parmesan on top.

5.     Enjoy  immediately because this dish does not reheat well due to the avocado in the sauce that turns black after a while.
