Homemade Pesto Sauce With Avocado - Fast And Easy Pesto Pasta Recipe by Rockin Robin
Recipe Information
Pesto Pasta
Cultural Context
Originating from the Liguria region of Italy, Pesto Pasta is a vibrant dish that highlights the fresh flavors of basil and garlic. Traditionally served with trofie or trenette, this dish embodies the Italian philosophy of using simple, high-quality ingredients. Today, pesto has found its way into kitchens worldwide, with various adaptations and twists, making it a beloved staple in many cultures.
pine nuts
🥗Healthier: walnuts
💰Cheaper: sunflower seeds
Walnuts are more affordable and provide a similar texture.
Parmesan cheese
🥗Healthier: nutritional yeast
💰Cheaper: grated Pecorino
Nutritional yeast offers a cheesy flavor with fewer calories.
Pick basil leaves from the stems and rinse them in a strainer.
Spin the basil leaves in a salad spinner to dry them.
Pack the basil leaves into a measuring cup to ensure you have 2 cups.
Chop garlic by hand into a fine dice.
Toast pine nuts in a dry frying pan on low heat for 3-4 minutes until browned.
Transfer toasted pine nuts to a bowl to cool.
Add basil leaves, toasted pine nuts, and chopped garlic to a food processor.
Pulse the mixture until broken down, then add avocado and pulse again.
Add a sprinkle of salt and grated Parmesan cheese to the food processor.
Drizzle in 1/4 cup of olive oil while pulsing to achieve desired consistency.
Squeeze in a little lemon juice to prevent avocado from browning.
Taste the sauce and adjust seasoning if necessary, adding more olive oil if needed.
Cook twisty noodles according to package instructions and drain them.
Combine the noodles with the pesto sauce, mixing well to coat.
Serve with additional Parmesan cheese on top.
