Creamy Avocado Pasta
It just doesn’t get easier than this! If you love a simple pasta dish, this is the recipe for you!
We used Casa M Spice Co® Pecking Order® for a rich savory flavor in our avocado sauce. You can absolutely taste the hints of turmeric and black pepper in this recipe. The richness of avocado is nicely offset by the acidic lime juice and spicy background flavors of Pecking Order®.
This recipe is best served immediately over freshly cooked pasta, but if you’re on the run you can easily turn this recipe into a cold pasta salad! Just switch to penne or gemelli pasta, toss the pasta in your sauce then cool down in the fridge for about 30 minutes and voila! Don’t worry, it won’t brown because of the added lime juice.
As always, from our table to yours... #SpiceConfidently #EssenceOfFlavor #ChemistryInTheKitchen #CasaMSpice

-
1.
Cook pasta according to package directions. We recommend serving this with freshly cooked pasta as the avocado cream sauce will cool down the pasta when mixed together.
-
2.
In a food processor, combine oil, 1 avocado, Casa M Spice Co® Pecking Order®, lime juice and grated parmesan. Pulse until smooth. If you don’t have a food processor handy, just mash it together with a fork and mix until smooth.
-
3.
In a serving bowl add fresh cooked pasta and mix in the avocado cream.
-
4.
Add Chopped avocado and stir carefully as to not mash the chunks.
-
Tip: Serve right away while it's steaming hot, or chill and serve cold.
