    Pasta with Wild Garlic Pesto

    Jump to recipe Print Recipe

    If you love pasta, pesto and garlic this Pasta with Wild Garlic Pesto is something for you! It's super creamy, garlicky, and absolutely perfect to have with a glass of red wine.

    Pesto has always been my favorite sauce. If it were for me, I would have it for breakfast, smeared on a slice of bread. My obsession has reached such levels that my boyfriend can't even hear the word "pesto"anymore xD, which I can not understand because I believe there is nothing better than a sauce made of olive oil , walnuts and basil, right?

    Wild Garlic has a very strong garlicky aroma and flavor, for this reason I decided to mix it with avocado, in this way the avocado does not only neutralize the garlic flavor but it makes the pesto super creamy.

    If you try this recipe, let me know! You can leave a comment, rate the recipe, and don’t forget to tag a photo #vegaliciously on Instagram! Buon appetito!
