• 12 ounces spaghetti
• 2 avocados--halved, pitted and peeled
• 1 garlic clove, smashed
• 1 bunch scallions, roughly chopped
• Juice of 1 lemon
• 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
• Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Preparation

Step 1

. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the spaghetti and cook until al dente, 6 to 8 minutes.

. While the pasta cooks, make the sauce: In the bowl of a food processor, pulse the avocados, garlic, scallions, lemon juice and olive oil until smooth.

When the pasta is tender, reserve ½ cup of the cooking water, then drain the pasta. Add the reserved water to the avocado mixture and process until smooth.

. Add the sauce to the pasta and toss to coat. Season with salt and pepper. To serve, portion the pasta onto plates and garnish with parsley.
