THE AVOCADO IS A FRUIT, NOT A VEGETABLE?

In a large pot of boiling water, cook pasta according to package instructions; drain well.

To make the avocado sauce, combine ripe avocados, garlic, basil, and lemon juice in the bowl of a food processor. Season with salt and pepper, as desired. Slowly add olive oil to the food processor until well combined.

In a large bowl, combine pasta, avocado sauce, tomatoes, and lemon zest. Serve immediately. Fresh avocado sauce can turn brown (oxidize) quickly. Serve topped with fresh basil leaves.

Note: For a lighter option that is grain-free, serve the avocado pasta sauce with homemade zucchini noodles in place of regular pasta.
