Pasta w/ Avocado Dressing



Nice & Creamy!

Ingredients

Dressing
  • 1/2 Avocado
  • 1/3 cup Olive oil
  • 1 tsp Lemon juice
  • 1 Tbs Tahini
  • 1 Garlic clove
  • 1 tsp Apple cider vinegar
  • Sea salt (to taste)
  • Pepper (to taste)
  • 2 Tbs Almond milk
  • Pinch of Thyme
  • Pinch of Basil
  • 1 cup Broccoli (cooked)
  • 1 1/2 cup Pasta of your choice
  • 1 small Tomato (chopped)
  • 1 small Onion (chopped)

Directions

Cook pasta as directed and set aside.

Combine  all dressing ingredients in a blender and blend. It will be thick, so you can add more almond milk to make it the consistency you want.

In a bowl add tomatoes, onions, pasta and broccoli. Add dressing and mix well. 

I served this dish cold. I'm thinking it would taste good hot also.
