Avocado pasta

27th June 2019 by letseatsmart Leave a Comment

It’s no surprise that avocado is my favourite fruit. If you know me, you know that I eat at least two a day. They taste delicious and they are so good for you too (you can read more about the health benefits of avocados here).

Anyway, I also like pasta. I mean, you guys know I’m all about the carbs. Combine the two together and ta-dah! Here comes one of my favourite dishes – avocado pasta, yay!

Mixed with flavoursome pesto, edamame beans and peas, served with spicy roasted cherry tomatoes and sweet coconut yoghurt, this simple pasta dish is to die for. Let’s do this! This is comfort food at its finest.

AD | Chewy, gooey, caramelised biscuit cookies 🍪  With crunchy caramelised biscuit wafer pieces from @loveraw  Makes 8
Ingredients
* 120 g golden caster sugar
* 50 g dark chocolate chunks
* 2 @loveraw caramelised biscuit wafer bars
* 1/8 tsp salt
* 200 g plain flour
* 1/2 tsp baking soda
* 60 g butter, melted
* 50 g caramelised biscuit spread
* 70 g golden syrup
* 3 tbsp water
Instructions
* Preheat the oven to 180C | gas mark 4. Line a baking sheet with baking paper and set aside.

* In a large bowl, combine the golden caster sugar, chocolate chunks and salt. Sieve in the flour and soda.

* In a separate bowl, combine the biscuit spread, butter and golden syrup. Once combined, add it to the flour mixture. Mix using a wooden spoon and bring the dough together using your hands.

* Divide the dough into 8 golf sized balls, flatten slightly and place on the baking tray. Roughly chop the wafer bars and gently push in a couple of pieces into each cookie. 

* Bake in the middle of the oven for 8-10 minutes. The edges of the cookies should feel firm but the centre will be still quite soft. Leave to cool for 15 minutes.  #biscoff #caramelisedbiscuit #cookies #chewycookies #chocoholic #dessertporn #vegandessert #vegetarianrecipe #recipe #foodporn #vegan #veganfoodshare #veganfoodporn #veganfood #veganrecipes #foodinspo #foodblog #foodie #foodshare #veganmealprep #veganism #foodinsta #fitspiration #cantbelieveitsvegan #cleaneating #diet #mealprepinspo #plantbaseddiet #bvsbackdrops
