    Karielyn's Expert Tips + Ingredient Substitutions

    Here are some of my expert tips to make this recipe perfectly:

    Linguine:  If you don't have or don't like linguine, use your favorite gluten-free + corn-free pasta variety such as angel hair pasta, spaghetti, or even raw zucchini noodles.

    Tomatoes: Fresh tomatoes will give the best flavor in this recipe, but feel free to use your favorite variety of tomatoes and long as you have (1) cup diced. 

    Garlic:  I like the extra garlic when I make this, but not everyone does.  Start with 1-2 cloves of garlic and add more if you prefer.

    Lemon Juice: Freshly squeezed lemon juice will give the best flavor and nutrients since it hasn't been pasteurized, but you can also use store-bought organic lemon juice.

    Pine Nuts:  I added the pine nuts for texture, but they can be omitted.

    Parsley: I added the fresh parsley more for the visual effect, but it can be omitted.

    Avocado Oil: You can substitute the avocado oil with organic extra-virgin olive oil.

    Himalayan Pink Salt: This is my salt of preference, however, it can always be substituted with sea salt. 

    Serving Size: This recipe will make 1-pound or approximately 4 servings of pasta. Nutritional information is for (1) serving which is 1/2 cup.

      Hi,

      Oh my goodness, just seeing the name of the recipe made my mouth water! This was delicious as-is, although next time I may add some grilled radicchio as we seem to be always grilling this time of year and I love to add a superfood in when I can. Thank you for the recipe and I look forward to making it again.

        Hi there Julia! Thank you so much! I love the idea of adding the grilled radicchio and I had even though of sprinkling it with some hemp seeds for extra protein so I bet that would be good too.

        Thanks again and I'm glad to hear you enjoyed the recipe 🙂

        Hi there Rose! Thank you so much, I really appreciate it! I love pine nuts too, but for some reason they always get skipped over and neglected when I go through my nut and seed collection so I'm glad I was able to use them in this recipe.

        Thanks for stopping by 🙂
