Angel Hair Pasta With Basil, Avocado & Tomato - Vegetarian (Or Not)

I scaled back for 1 serve using 80 grams of thin spaghetti instead of angel hair pasta as that is what I had on hand and used a full tomato and a mini avocado. I cooked my garlic to a brown crispy flavour as when I use local garlic like this it turns into garlic crisps and in a dish is so delicious and I also cooked up the diced up skin for a few minutes before I added the tomato flesh and avocado and some of the pasta water before adding the cooked pasta and the end result with a little garlic bread on the side was one very delicious dinner twissis made for For Your Consideration tag game on FF&FF.

I chose this recipe for its delicious ingredients of course but also for its ease in preparation. I lightly sauteed the garlic and tomatoes on med-low heat for only a few minutes. Then tossed the cooked pasta with the garlic, tomatoes and olive oil in a prep bowl. Transferred to a serving platter and arranged avocado slices, fresh basil from garden, and finished with freshly grated asiago, another squirt of olive oil, s/p. I wouldn't recommend heating the avocado as it'll only turn to mush. Besides, the avocado will warm up with the heat of the pasta. I also drizzled a small amount of dark balsamic vinegar on the avocado to stop them from turning brown. Served with roasted small whole carrots. Made for FTT.
