Avocado Pasta

Avocado Pasta
  • 1/2 (16 ounce) package whole wheat penne
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 lime, zested and juiced
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh mint
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives
  • 2 cloves garlic, pressed
  • 1 tablespoon nutritional yeast (optional)
  • salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • 1 cup bean sprouts
  • 1 avocado - peeled, pitted and sliced


  1. Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil; add penne and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 10 minutes. Drain and return to pot.
  2. Whisk olive oil, lime zest and juice, mint, chives, garlic, nutritional yeast, salt, and pepper together in a bowl. Pour over hot pasta; add bean sprouts. Toss to coat.
  3. Serve topped with avocado slices and more freshly ground black pepper.
