Basil pesto - with secret ingredient - KIDS LOVE IT

I asked my 10 year old son for his input on what he wanted for dinner. Well, I asked him to help me plan the dinner for the week. Because if I am going to cook, than I might as well make sure they enjoy it as well !

And one of the recipes that he requested and which I also love is the Avocado Basil pesto over chicken.

Seriously, this recipe takes like no time, but tastes so so yummy. I love how it includes spinach and avocado.

Here are the ingredients

- 1/4 cup Basil
-2- 3 cups of Spinach
- 2 tbsp Olive oil
- Salt ( I prefer to use pink Himalayan salt )
- 1 whole Avocado
- 3 garlic pieces ( more if you like it spicy )
- Parmesan cheese approx 1/4 cup
- and 1 cup of water from the cooked noodles that you will cook

Toss it all into the blender and let it go !!!

My measurements were all to my taste, so add and remove as you like!

Once all blended up I poured it over my pasta and added my chicken !

Served it up and they ate it up !!!
