Preparation

Step 1

Cook your pasta according to the package. While the pasta is cooking, add the avocado, garlic, cilantro, lime juice, and olive oil to a blender and blend well. When the pasta is cooked, save 2 tablespoons of pasta water and drain well. Toss the pasta with the avocado sauce, thinning with pasta water if needed. Season with salt and pepper to taste and top with a fried egg and cilantro, if desired. Enjoy!
