📝 Ingredients

• 10 ounces spaghetti (dry, or fettuccine, I used semolina pasta)
• 1 clove garlic
• 1 avocado
• 1 cup fresh spinach
• 1/2 cup pecans
• 1/4 cup fresh basil
• 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese (freshly grated)
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice (freshly squeezed)
• 3/4 to 1 cup pasta water
• 1/2 teaspoon salt (or to taste)
• 1/2 teaspoon pepper (or to taste)

👨‍🍳 Instructions

1. 1Cook pasta:: Cook the pasta according to the package instructions.
2. 2Make the avocado sauce:: Add the rest of the ingredients to your blender and blend until it turns into a smooth sauce. Start with ¾ cup of pasta water and add more as needed to get the consistency you want.
3. 3Assemble:: Toss the pasta with the sauce in a bowl and serve immediately. This sauce is best served the day it is made, as it uses avocados which will turn a brownish color.
