Avocado Pasta

This simple pasta recipe can be made in less than 15 minutes! Aside from being easy, it’s a healthy alternative to pasta made from wheat. It’s made with chickpea noodles and a delicious avocado tahini sauce.

Ingredients

1 box of Banza pasta
1 large avocado
⅓ cup tahini
1 ½ tsp honey
Splash of almond milk
Dash of pepper

Instructions:

  1. Cook Banza pasta following the directions on the box.
  2. While the pasta is cooking add avocado, tahini, honey, almond milk and pepper to blender. Blend ingredients together, this will form your sauce.
  3. Once the pasta is done cooking drain the water and pour the pasta back into the pot. Add the sauce to the pasta pot and stir thoroughly.

Notes:

*Feel free to also sauté veggies such as spinach, tomatoes, pepper, etc to add into the pasta! I chose to add a little spinach to mine.
