Zucchini with Pesto and Pine Nuts




















This is an easy vegetable side that I will make again. Found on Pinterest, Eating Well Magazine. I followed the recipe, except added toasted pine nuts. Fresh mozzarella and tomato would be interesting additions...

Ingredients:

  • 5 small-medium zucchini
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 1-2 tablespoons pesto (bought or homemade)
  • 2 tablespoon toasted pine nuts













Directions:
Wash and pat dry the zucchini. Cut into 1-inch pieces. Place in a medium bowl and toss with the olive oil.

Place the zucchini in a single layer on a baking sheet and boil for 6-8 minutes until the tops begin to brown and zucchini is soften. 

Remove the zucchini to a serving dish and toss with salt, pepper and pesto. 

Garnish with pine nuts.
