4 cups lightly packed (about 3 oz) fresh baby spinach⠀

3 medium avocados (2 for the dressing, 1 for salad)⠀
12 oz rotini pasta⠀
1 cup (half of a 10 oz bag) frozen sweet peas⠀
1 cup (half of a 10 oz bag) frozen corn⠀
2 cups (1 pint) Baby tomatoes, halved⠀
1 tsp sea salt and 1/4 tsp black pepper, or to taste⠀

How To Make Creamy Avocado Pasta Salad:⠀
Cook pasta according to package instructions – I cooked 12 oz pasta in 4 Qts water with 1 Tbsp salt and boiled 10 minutes. About 4 minutes before your pasta is done cooking, add frozen peas and frozen corn and cook 4 minutes or until veggies are crisp tender. Rinse under running cold water to chill the pasta. Drain well and transfer to a large mixing bowl. In a food processor or blender, combine half of the spinach, 2 quartered avocados, 4 Tbsp lemon juice, 1 sliced garlic clove, 1 tsp salt and 1/4 tsp black pepper. Pulse until blended then add remaining spinach and blend until creamy and smooth.⠀
Add avocado dressing to pasta bowl along with sliced tomatoes and 1 remaining sliced avocado. Toss salad together until evenly coated. Season to taste with more salt and black pepper.
