Number Of Ingredients 15

2 zucchinis
2 yellow squashes
2 carrots
2 cups grape tomato
olive oil, for drizzling
salt, to taste
pepper, to taste
2 cups fresh basil
1 cup fresh parsley
½ cup cashews
1 clove garlic
½ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon pepper
1 tablespoon lemon juice
½ cup olive oil

Steps:

  • Cut the ends off the zucchini. With a vegetable peeler, shave off as many thin slices as possible and transfer a large bowl. Repeat with the yellow squash and carrots.
  • Place the grape tomatoes between 2 large plates or tupperware lids. Press down, securing the tomatoes in place, and use a long, sharp knife to slice the tomatoes in half. Add to the bowl with the shaved vegetables.
  • Drizzle olive oil over the vegetables and season with salt and pepper. Toss to combine.
  • Make the pesto: Add the basil, parsley, cashews, garlic, salt, pepper, lemon juice, and olive oil to a food processor and process until smooth.
  • Spoon the pesto onto the shaved vegetables and mix well with tongs until fully coated and serve.
  • Enjoy!
