Ingredients

Instructions

  • Roughly chop the mushrooms and sauté in some olive oil with a couple of cloves of crushed garlic, a bunch of thyme, salt and pepper.
  • When they’re hot enough add the white wine and allow it to completely evaporate.
  • Cook on medium heat until tender (5-10 minutes).
  • In a food processer combine avocado flesh, parsley, 1 clove of garlic (whole or grated according to your blender’s power), plant based milk and lemon juice.
  • Blend until smooth and creamy.
  • Cook the pasta “al dente”.
  • Drain the pasta making sure to keep some of its water; transfer into a pan and coat it well with the avocado and parsley pesto.
  • Serve it immediately with mushrooms, fresh parsley and a touch of truffle oil.

Notes

Feel free to top it with some vegan parmesan or nutritional yeast for extra flavour and nutrients.
