Avocado Linguine

Prep and Cook time: About 25 minutes
Makes: 4 to 6 servings
 

Smooth avocado and crunchy sunflower seeds add varied texture to linguine in a creamy sauce.

Ingredients

1 pound dried linguine
1 large firm-ripe avocado (about 10 oz.)
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1/2 cup diced cambozola cheese
1/2 cup Plain Nonfat Yogurt
1/3 cup fat-free reduced-sodium chicken broth
Salt and pepper
1/3 cup salted toasted sunflower seed kernels
2 tablespoons minced fresh parsley

Instructions

1. In a 6- to 8-quart pan, bring about 4 quarts water to a boil over high heat; stir in pasta and cook, uncovered, until just tender to bite (8 to 10 minutes). Or cook pasta according to package directions.

2. Meanwhile, pit and peel avocado, then cut lengthwise into 1/2-inch-thick slices. Place slices on a plate, sprinkle with lemon juice, and set aside.

3. Drain pasta well, then return to cooking pan. Set pan over low heat. Add cheese, yogurt, and broth; mix, lifting with 2 forks, until cheese is melted and almost all liquid has been absorbed. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

4. To serve, pour pasta onto a platter. Arrange avocado slices atop pasta; sprinkle with sunflower seeds and parsley.
