Vickys Spinach & Avocado Spaghetti, GF DF EF SF NF step by step
- Cook the spaghetti as the packet directs you to, in salted water.
- When the pasta is done, add the avocado flesh, garlic, spinach, basil and lemon juice to a blender and pour 120mls (1/2 cup) of the hot pasta water in.
- Puree smooth, adding up to 60 mls (1/4 cup) more pasta water if required until you reach your desired thickness of sauce.
- If adding chilli flakes and / or bacon, stir into the sauce after you've pureed it.
- Drain the pasta and return to the pan.
- Pour the sauce in, toss gently to coat then serve.
- Fry or grill the bacon until crispy then chop up and stir into the spaghetti and sauce.
- Dry fry the pine nuts until they begin to turn golden then remove from the pan to a cool plate immediately. Use as a topping for the spaghetti.
- My recipe for dairy-free parmesan cheese goes great sprinkled over this. Nutritional yeast flakes would be great too.
