Creamy Avocado Pasta

Creamy Avocado Pasta
Avocado is rich in proteins, fibres,vitamins and carotenoids. It boosts levels of good cholesterol, good for heart and also provide Anito-inflammatory benefits. Pasta is my kid's favourite.. that too he loves cheese pasta. I always try to avoid giving cheese to my hubby.Most of the time, I prepare broccoli pasta or spinach pasta. This time, I tried a very easy, quick and healthy Avocado pasta. Please check below for step by step instructions and pictures for preparing Creamy Avocado Pasta.
