Avocado Pasta

Avocado is one of the nutritious stone fruit that can be used as an ingredient in various recipes. This time I am going to try something different with the fruit. I experimented it with creamy pasta and the recipe turned out awesome.

So let’s jump into on how I cooked this pasta using Avocado and some other ingredients. It’s a quick vegan and creamy snack you can have in the evening.
