Love this recipe as I never thought to add artichoke and it is beautiful you can’t taste it a lot and that’s good for the grandkids.

I often make this but don’t include the artichokes.

I love avocado with anything. It’s my go-to that is used on toast, bread, crackers, in pastas, in salads, you name it. We’ve never tried artichokes, so I might replace this, but otherwise love any new additions to my pasta repertoire.

Avocado and artischokes are such good combi, I like to eat it just on it’s own without pasta but with some pine nuts, pistachio’s dukkah or cashews.

Penne is my favourite type of pasta and always keep a couple of packs in the cupboard. I find them versatile and quick to make while long pastas such as the good old spaghetti can be far too awkward to make especially the very long strands that can get over the pot . I love avocados so will try this as always trying to find easy sauces besides tomato .
