Avocado Pesto Zoodles


Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 medium zucchinis, spiralized
  • 1/2 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 cup fresh basil
  • 1 cup spinach
  • 1/3 cup roasted cashews (or pine nuts)
  • 1 medium ripe avocado
  • 2 cloves of garlic
  • 1 lemon (juice & zest)
  • Salt to taste
  • Sun-dried tomatoes to garnish

Instructions

  1. In a food processor, combine the basil, spinach, cashews, avocado, garlic, lemon juice and sea salt. Process until smooth, then taste and adjust any ingredients as necessary. You may need to add some water if it is too thick, depending on how thick you want your sauce to be.
