Avocado Pesto

Avocado Pesto is deliciously creamy and doesn’t contain any cheese. I would like to call this a healthy pesto :). Pesto is my go to sauce for pizza or pasta. This is perfect for vegan diet. Avocado is so creamy that one cannot figure out the absence of cheese in Pesto. It tastes great with pasta, as a dip or with quinoa when tossed with veggies. The flavor of this pesto is enhanced by adding a lil bit of crushed red chilly flakes to give it a savory touch.
