Ingredients
Method
Preparation
- Use a spiralizer to make noodles out of the zucchinis. Set aside.
- In a food processor, combine the drained artichoke hearts, fresh basil leaves, lemon juice, garlic cloves, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Pulse until well mixed but still slightly chunky.
Making the Pesto
- With the food processor running, slowly drizzle in the olive oil until combined, then stir in the grated Parmesan cheese.
Combining
- In a large bowl, toss the zoodles with the freshly made artichoke lemon pesto until evenly coated.
Serving
- Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Serve immediately, optionally topped with more Parmesan, a drizzle of olive oil, or additional fresh basil.
Notes
Top Tips: For a nut-free version of the pesto, replace pine nuts with sunflower seeds. Prep pesto in advance and store it in the fridge for up to a week. Avoid overcooking zoodles; cook just until tender (about 2-3 minutes).
