Small handful of cilantro (about 1 cup, stems and leaves)
1 garlic clove
1/2 an avocado
1/2 TBS olive oil
1 TBS lime juice
1/4 tsp salt
1 tsp hot sauce (or to taste)
Instructions
Cook pasta according to package directions. Reserve 2 TBS pasta cooking liquid when draining.
Meanwhile, combine cilantro and garlic in a food processor and process until finely chopped. Add olive oil, lime juice, and the avocado. Pulse until your desired consistency (I like 2 pulses).
Toss cooked pasta with cilantro avocado pesto, salt, and hot sauce. Serve.
