Ingredients

• 1 avocado, ripe

• 1 clove garlic

• 1 cup fresh basil leaves or spinach leaves

• ½ cup Nutritional Yeast

• ¼ cup extra virgin olive oil

• Water, as needed

• Salt and pepper, for taste

• 1lb of your favorite linguine or fettuccini

Directions

1. In a blender or food processor, combine the avocado, garlic, basil\spinach leaves, and Nutritional Yeast. While ingredients are blending, slowly pour in the extra virgin olive oil. Blend the pesto until well combined. To thin out the pesto, add water, 1 tablespoon at a time, until it reaches a smooth, but not runny, consistency.

2. Add a dash of salt and pepper.

3. On the stove, bring a pot of water to a boil. Then cook the linguine until al dente.

4. In a large bowl, combine the pesto with the cooked linguine and serve.
