- While the pasta cooks, prepare the green sauce. Simply place all of the ingredients into a blender and blend until smooth. For best results, we recommend using a high-speed blender. Alternatively, you could use a food processor but the sauce might turn out a bit chunkier and not as smooth.1 Bag Spinach, 1 Ripe Avocado, 2 Garlic Cloves, 1/4 cup Cream, 1/2 cup Basil Leaves, 2 tbsp Olive Oil, 1/3 cup Pasta Water
