Zucchini Pasta Pesto

You MUST make this!   I seriously can not stop eating it!

When the whole spiralizer, zoodles thing became popular I did a serious eye roll.   I don't like extra steps at all.  But, I changed my tune!!  This stuff is AMAZING and not at all hard to make.

I personally like this spiralizer-

You can get less expensive versions but this had great reviews and I agree.

Zucchini Pasta Pesto:
serves 4
4 Large Zucchini
1/2 cup pesto (make your own favorite recipe or buy your own fresh version)
1 cup cherry tomatoes cut in half
Fresh Basil for garnish

Spiralize the zucchini.  Lightly salt zoodles in a colander and let sit for 20 minutes (or 4 hours if you forgot about them and left home to run 1 million errands).  Remove excess liquid and combine with tomatoes and pesto.  Mix up, top with fresh basil and CHOW down. 

*sometimes I do a quick roast of the cherry tomatoes with a little olive oil if I have time to add another layer of flavor.  It is great both ways!

Hope you enjoy!
