Creamy Roasted Garlic Avocado Sauce
I LOVE pasta, which I am sure if you have been around here for a bit you can tell that, but what I really love about my pasta is my sauces. There are times when I can be happy with just the toppings and sauce that I normally use on top of pasta, like with my Chicken and Broccoli Alfredo.
However there are times that I need more. To keep myself happy I have been using zoodles instead of pasta. They are not exactly the same, but they sure tastes yummy!
The best pasta sauce ever is Alfredo sauce however that can get old eating it over and over again. No matter how much I love it, I don’t want to eat it every day! So I am always wanting to have something amazing but not alfredo. This Creamy Roasted Garlic Avocado Sauce in one of our pasta sauces we rotate in often.
