A delightful and refreshing pasta salad featuring creamy avocado, juicy tomatoes, and a tangy lime dressing.
Cook the penne pasta in a large pot of boiling salted water until al dente.
Stir the pasta occasionally to prevent sticking.
In a mixing bowl, combine the light mayonnaise and the juice of one lime.
Whisk the dressing until smooth for an even coating.
Chop the cherry tomatoes, ripe avocado, and red onion into bite-sized pieces.
Use a sharp knife for clean cuts and to avoid mashing the avocado.
Drain the cooked pasta and rinse with cold water to cool it down.
Ensure the pasta is well-drained to avoid watering down the salad.
Combine the pasta, chopped vegetables, and dressing in the mixing bowl. Mix gently to combine.
Fold the ingredients together gently to maintain the texture of the avocado.
Sprinkle the fresh cilantro over the salad and season with salt to taste.
Add the cilantro just before serving for maximum freshness.
Serve the salad chilled or at room temperature and enjoy!
Pair with a light beverage for a refreshing meal.
