    Unfortunately, we cannot take any credit for this wonderful recipe. We have based it almost entirely on the Guacaroni recipe from BOSH!, that you can find in their first vegan cookbook with the same name – link here (highly recommended, by the way).

    Ever since we first made it for a picnic in Snowdonia, this salad has become an office lunch staple for Seb. Easy to make, pack this salad in lunch boxes and then eat at your desk! This Avocado Pasta Salad is both filling and nutritious. Made with guacamole instead of dressing, this pasta salad is as creamy as you’d like and has strong flavours of zingy lime and sweet tomatoes.

    Avocado Pasta Salad

    We made this Avocado Pasta Salad with penne, but the original recipe calls for macaroni. You can use any other pasta shape you fancy though – the wow factor is in the guacamole dressing!


    How to Make This Delicious Avocado Pasta Salad?

    Cook your pasta following packet instructions in salted water. Drain, drizzle with a tablespoon of olive oil to prevent sticking and leave to cool down slightly.

    Chop red onion and red chilli very finely (we deseed the chilli first for milder flavour in this recipe). Alternatively, use ½-1 teaspoon of chilli flakes. Quarter cherry tomatoes (or baby plum tomatoes).

    To make the avocado dressing, destone the ripe avocados, squeeze lime all over them and mash well with a fork in a large mixing bowl.

    Add a tablespoon of olive oil, garlic powder, chopped red onion, chilli and tomatoes. Season with salt and mix to combine.

    Add your pasta and mix well to coat. Serve on a bed of spinach or shredded lettuce.

    A photo of Ieva lookinf at Seb, both smiling.

    Hi, I am Ieva – the face behind this blog. I live in North Wales with my husband Seb and our golden retriever Sawyer. It’s safe to say that I live and breathe food: from researching and reading about food to creating new recipes and growing vegetables to use in my cooking.  The great thing is, Seb appreciates all the good meals that are also essential at his worst ‘hangry’ moments! Somebody HAS to feed Seb…
