Steps:

• Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a boil. Stir in penne, and return to a boil. Cook pasta uncovered, stirring occasionally, until mostly cooked through, but still firm to the bite, 8 to 10 minutes. Add shrimp to boiling water and cook until shrimp are bright pink on the outside and the meat is no longer transparent in the center, 2 to 3 minutes. Drain penne and shrimp; transfer back to empty pot.
• Blend avocado, lemon juice, basil, 2 tablespoons Romano cheese, garlic, salt, and black pepper in a food processor until smooth. Add olive oil and pulse until creamy. Remove blade from food processor and stir diced tomatoes into the creamy pesto. Transfer pesto to pot with pasta and shrimp; stir to coat.

PEA PESTO TOAST RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Make the pea pesto: Add the peas, herbs, walnuts, Parmesan cheese, garlic, red pepper flakes, and lemon juice to a food processor. Blend on high speed, scraping down the sides of the bowl as necessary, until the peas are mostly broken down, 1-2 minutes.
• Pour in ¼ cup (60 ml) of olive oil and blend until smooth. For a looser consistency, add more olive oil until your desired texture is reached. Transfer the pea pesto to an airtight container; you should have about 2 cups. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator until ready to use, up to 1 week.
• Assemble the toast: Spread ¼-⅓ cup of pea pesto over the toasted sourdough. Drape the prosciutto over the pesto and top with the poached egg. Finish with a drizzle of olive oil and a sprinkle of salt and pepper.
• Enjoy!
