Ingredients
  

12 ounces spaghetti or your preferred pasta

2 ripe avocados, diced

4 cups cherry tomatoes, halved

3 cloves garlic, minced

1/4 cup fresh basil leaves, chopped

1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil

1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar

Salt and pepper to taste

Freshly grated Parmesan cheese (optional)

Instructions
 

Cook the Pasta: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook according to the package instructions until al dente. Reserve 1 cup of pasta water, then drain the pasta and set aside.

    Prepare the Sauce: While the pasta is cooking, in a large serving bowl, combine the halved cherry tomatoes, diced avocados, minced garlic, and chopped basil.

      Make the Dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Pour the dressing over the tomato and avocado mixture.

        Combine Everything: Add the cooked pasta to the bowl with the tomato and avocado mixture. Toss gently to combine. If the pasta seems dry, gradually add reserved pasta water until the desired consistency is achieved.

          Taste and Adjust: Taste the pasta and adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper if desired.

            Serve: Divide the pasta among serving plates. If using, sprinkle freshly grated Parmesan cheese on top and garnish with extra basil leaves.
