Pasta and Avocado Cilantro Lime Sauce with Chicken

Pasta is a go to for me.

I am always trying new sauces to add great flavor to pasta, this was a winner with my family.

I could eat pasta at every meal.

Really I could, here is an example.

A spaghetti Breakfast and Savory Spaghetti and Eggs then Pesto Pasta Salad for Lunch oh there are so many pasta dinners like Spaghetti and Meatballs (yes there is a spaghetti and meatball cake too) spaghetti with sausage, a quick and delicious spaghetti dinner, even Spaghetti with Blue Cheese and toasted Walnuts and for dessert, Chocolate Spaghetti.

Now for how to make this easy and fresh pasta.

I Began with a California Acocado. I learned all about California Avocados at Camp Blog Away and received this Avocado cutter.

There is only one California Native in this photo :)

 

While you are bringing the water to a boil for your pasta, cut up skinless boneless chicken breasts and cook them over a medium heat.

In a blender combine the following:

2 avocado diced

15 sprigs of fresh cilantro chopped

1 lime juiced

3 tomatoes diced

1 roasted jalapeño diced

1/3 cup water

2 tablespoons oil

Blend until smooth, then coat hot cooked pasta with sauce and enjoy!

    We have pasta usually once a week but my husband just loves all different types and recipes. This looks like a dish he would truly enjoy.

    I love that avocado cutter and I’ve never seen one before. Wonder if we can get them in Canada?
