Step-by-Step Instructions
- Begin by spiralizing 3-4 medium zucchinis into long, thin noodles, known as zoodles. Use a spiralizer for best results, creating a beautiful, light base for your dish.
- To enhance the texture of your zoodles, sprinkle a little salt over them and let them sit for 15 minutes. After sitting, use a clean kitchen towel or paper towels to pat the zoodles dry.
- In a food processor, blend 2 ripe avocados, 2 cups of fresh basil, and 3-4 garlic cloves until smooth and creamy. Gradually drizzle in high-quality olive oil while processing to achieve desired consistency.
- If you prefer your zoodles slightly tender, heat a drizzle of olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Sauté for just 1-2 minutes, then remove from heat.
- In a large bowl, toss the prepared zucchini noodles with the creamy avocado pesto until evenly coated. Serve immediately, garnishing with additional seeds or nutritional yeast.

Notes
Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 24 hours. Pesto may brown slightly but will still be delicious.
