Mango Avocado Sauce for Tacos + Pasta
This right here is what you want to have handy and live off of all summer long. A riff on my popular savory mango sauce, this rich avocado sauce recipe variation is 100% wfpb oil-free, raw and vegan, no mayo, so enjoy as much of it as you want, guilt free baby.
From tacos to pasta this sauce goes well with pretty much everything. Thanks to lots of zesty lemon or lime juice it also keeps well in the fridge for a couple of days, just make sure to store it in an airtight jar to prevent oxidation.
I tossed mine with zoodles one night and cold soba the next. You could even mix spaghetti and zucchini noodles together and sprinkle with some of this everything bagel seasoning or juicy cherry tomatoes. So delicious!
- Easy – the sauce is super simple and easy to make, just throw everything in a blender or food processor and process until creamy smooth and voila: magic sauce in your face!
- Recipe Variation – to give your sauce some Mexican flair simply swap the basil for fresh cilantro. You can alternate Italian Pasta night and Taco Tuesdays like a boss!
