Step 3

  • Add basil and ¼ cup olive oil and process again.Finally, add lemon juice and process until combined.Set the pesto aside until you're ready to combine with zucchini noodles.Chop about ½" off both ends of the zucchini and spiralize. I recommend tearing the noodles into smaller pieces as you go, otherwise you'll end up with a "Lady and the Tramp" situation on your hands when you try to eat your pasta!Once you've finished spiralizing, add zoodles to a large bowl and mix in the pesto until well-coated.
