Macaroni with Avocado and Anchovies
Are you looking for an easy healthy macaroni recipe, then this is for you! It may not be the prettiest pasta dish, but it might be the tastiest especially if you are an avocado lover you will go crazy with this recipe.
I use 1 Cup of anchovies in oil for this as Anchovies are a rich source of iron and have a high content of vitamin B3 which helps turn food into energy. Avocado is a great source of potassium and sodium which works to combat high blood pressure. Plus, a choice for people who are watching their weight because Avocados can keep them satisfied longer.
