Step‑by‑Step Instructions
- Start by trimming the ends of two medium zucchinis and using a spiralizer to create long, noodle-like strands.
- In a food processor, combine a generous handful of fresh basil, a quarter cup of pine nuts, half a cup of grated Parmesan cheese, and two cloves of garlic. Pulse while drizzling in about half a cup of olive oil until creamy.
- Once blended, taste the pesto sauce, adding salt and pepper to enhance its flavors. Pulse again for a few seconds.
- Halve a handful of sweet cherry tomatoes and set them aside in a small bowl.
- In a large mixing bowl, add the spiralized zucchini noodles and pour in the pesto sauce. Toss gently for about a minute.
- Spoon the Zucchini Noodles with Pesto onto serving plates, top with the halved cherry tomatoes, and drizzle a little olive oil.

Notes
Store any leftover zucchini noodles separately from the pesto to prevent sogginess; consume within two days for optimal freshness.
