I thought I would share another of my delicious courgette noodle recipes. This time I used lime, pine nuts and mint to make a pesto to cook the courgetti / zoodles in, and it was so tangy and delicious!
Courgette Noodles (Zoodles) with Lime & Mint Pesto - serves 1
handful of fresh mint leaves
juice of 1 lime
pinch of chilli flakes (optional)
half a ripe avocado
1 tbsp pine nuts
half a tsp coconut oil
1 courgette, spiralised
- add the mint, lime, chilli, avocado and pine nuts to a powerful blender such as a Nutribullet, and blend until smooth (adding a little water if necessary)
- heat the coconut oil in a large non stick pan over a medium/high heat
- add the pesto and then the courgette noodles
- heat for around 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened and coated in the pesto
