Avocado Pasta

For my mom and lactose intolerant creamy pasta lovers everywhere.

Avocado Pasta
Adapted from I am a Food Blog
Serves 2

• 6 ounces of pasta
• 1 avocado, pitted and pealed
• 2 cloves garlic
• handful of cilantro
• 1 tablespoon lime juice
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• salt and pepper
• 2 fried eggs (optional, but if you're going to do it, let's make them over easy)
• chopped cilantro and arugula to finish (optional) - we didn't have arugula but it would have been nice.

Cook pasta as usual reserving 1/4 cup of pasta water.

Meanwhile, add avocado, garlic, cilantro, lime juice, and olive oil to a small food processor. Process until smooth. 

Toss pasta with avocado sauce thinning with the pasta water if needed.  Season with salt and pepper, top with fried egg, cilantro, and arugula.

Good leftover, I think the lime juice keeps it from turning brown.
