Steps:
- Cut the avocado in half lengthwise. Remove the pit from the avocado and discard. Remove the avocado from the skin, and place the avocado in the bowl of a food processor. Add the Parmesan and lemon juice to the food processor bowl. Pulse the mixture for 1 to 2 minutes while streaming in 2 tablespoons of the olive oil until smooth and creamy. Scrape down the sides of the food processor bowl with a spatula as needed. Season the sauce with salt and pepper. Set the avocado mixture aside.
- Bring a large pot of water to boil. Add the linguine and cook according to the package directions. Once the pasta is al dente, drain and set aside.
- Add the butter and remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil to a large skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic and cook for 30 seconds. Add the shrimp and cook until they are pink and cooked through, about 2 minutes per side. Add the scallions and red pepper flakes and stir to combine. Add the cooked pasta and the avocado-Parmesan sauce to the shrimp mixture and toss to combine using a pair of kitchen tongs. The pasta should be evenly coated with the avocado-Parmesan mixture. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
- Serve immediately, with more Parmesan if desired.

- CREAMY AVOCADO SAUCE: To the base of a food processor, add avocados, herbs/leafy greens, 3 garlic cloves, lemon juice, parmesan cheese and salt/pepper to taste. Pulse 8-10 times to chop up garlic and herbs. Slowly stream in 1/3 – 1/2 cup of olive oil (depending on thickness of sauce desired).
- GARLIC SHRIMP: Mince remaining 3 garlic cloves. Add 1 TBS butter and 1 TBS olive oil to skillet with garlic over medium heat. Stir continuously until butter melts. Add shrimp. Cook shrimp 1-2 minutes per side or until fully pink. Remove from heat. Do not over cook.
- ASSEMBLY: Toss the pasta with the creamy avocado sauce. I like to add a little pasta, little sauce, little pasta, etc. This helps make sure that the pasta to sauce ratio is correct. You may have extra sauce or extra pasta depending on the size of your avocados. Top with shrimp and cherry tomatoes. Garnish with additional herbs if desired.

- Step 1: Place 1/8 cup of butter into a large, heavy bottomed pan on medium heat. I like to use my Le Creuset Braiser.
- Step 1: Toast your cashews in a dry pan on medium heat until they’ve browned a little. This will happen really quickly, so keep an eye on them! Take them off the heat to cool as soon as they’re done.
- When your pasta has finished cooking, toss it into the pan with your shrimp and mix it up so the pasta gets coated in buttery garlicky goodness (if you aren’t adding shrimp, just put your pasta into a large serving bowl). Add the sauce and a bit of the pasta water to loosen it up (thin it out). Mix it all together, then continue adding a bit more pasta water until the consistency is what you want.
