Steps:
- Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a boil. Stir in penne, and return to a boil.

Drain penne and shrimp; transfer back to empty pot.

CREAMY AVOCADO PESTO PASTA
The addition of avocado lends a lovely creamy texture to this pesto. The ripe fruit imparts richness to the sauce, while nutty roasted pepitas add a deep toasty flavor. If you can only find raw pepitas, simply toss them with olive oil and salt, then toast in a skillet over medium-low heat, stirring, until they start to pop and turn golden brown. Shower the dressed pasta with more crunchy pepitas for a nice contrast to the velvety sauce. Leftover pesto can be refrigerated for two days; press the surface with plastic wrap to avoid discoloration (any browned areas on top should be scraped off before using). The pesto also makes a tasty avocado toast, sandwich spread or crudité dip.

Steps:
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
- Meanwhile, in a food processor, pulse pepitas and garlic until finely chopped. Halve avocado, discard the pit and scoop out flesh. (You should have about 3/4 cup, or 5 ounces.) Add avocado flesh, lemon juice, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper to food processor and pulse until chunky.
- Add cheese and basil to food processor. With motor running, drizzle in 1/2 cup water, then drizzle in oil until well blended, scraping down sides as needed. Transfer 2 cups of pesto to a large bowl. Refrigerate any remaining pesto for another use.
- Cook pasta according to package directions until al dente. Reserve 1/2 cup pasta water, then drain pasta. Add pasta and pasta water to pesto in large bowl and toss until pasta is nicely coated in sauce.
- Divide pasta among 4 bowls. Top with more pepitas, cheese and basil.
Tips:
- Use ripe avocados for the best flavor and texture.
- If you don't have a food processor, you can mash the avocado with a fork.
- If you don't have pesto, you can use a store-bought or homemade basil pesto sauce.
- If you don't have Parmesan cheese, you can use a different hard cheese, such as cheddar or mozzarella.
- Toast the bread until it is golden brown and crispy.
- Add a sprinkle of salt and pepper to taste.
- Garnish with fresh herbs, such as basil or cilantro.
- Serve immediately.
Conclusion:
Pesto Parmesan Avocado Toast is a quick and easy breakfast, lunch, or snack that is packed with flavor. It is a great way to use up leftover avocado and pesto. This recipe is also a great way to get your daily dose of fruits and vegetables.
