Heat the 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.

Remove from the heat, and stir in the cilantro. Keep warm. Meanwhile, in a large saucepan of lightly salted boiling water, cook the noodles until just tender, about 8 minutes. Drain well and transfer to a warmed serving bowl.

Add the tomato sauce, avocados, extra-virgin olive oil, and lime juice. Toss to mix well, and serve immediately.
