Crab, Avocado and CBD Pasta
Although avocado is usually thought of as a simple sandwich or guacamole ingredient, in this recipe it combines with herbs and citrus to create a wonderfully creamy raw sauce for pasta. Quick to prepare, this dish is perfect if you organize your ingredients while the water boils and the spaghetti cooks.
