I don't know why, but I've been craving avocados big time lately. For today's meal I decided to use some of my avocados in a creamy pesto sauce a top thick zucchini noodles. Mmm, this recipe was spot on and hit all the flavor notes I was going for. Plus, it was really easy to make since I just threw most of the ingredients in my food processor and boom, done! This recipe is so good, it had to be shared. Hope you enjoy it as much as I do! ☺
