Using what's around

How lucky to have such great ingredients lying around, waiting to be used. Last night's supper left half an avocado. Plus -- because they'd been on sale -- there was another one in the fruit basket.

Three different kinds of pasta were lolling about in mostly-empty boxes, so those were the candidates who rose to the occasion.

Because two limes had already been cut, I used those instead of the usual lemon in the standby 'guacamole pasta' dish.

Sadly, the dish wasn't up to its usual standard, so the limes are about all I can blame. Still, neither of us seems hungry, so the food must've done its job.
