Keto Pesto Pasta Salad

For the pesto:

• 1 cup of basil
• 1 3oz bag of pine nuts https://amzn.to/3ryNOsi
• 1/4 cup of mayonnaise
• 1 tablespoon of vegan cream cheese (or real cream cheese if you are not dairy free) I use this brand https://amzn.to/3i11itV
• 1 tablespoon of minced garlic
• 3 tablespoons of lemon juice
• 1 tablespoon of white wine vinegar
• 1 teaspoon of garlic powder
• 1-2 teaspoons of salt (based on preference)
• 2 tablespoons of pepper

Place all ingredients into a food processor and blend until creamy.

For the noodles:

• Spiralized zucchini ( I use this spiralizer) https://amzn.to/3rAAjZ6
• Cherry tomatoes (halved)
• Olive oil
• Lemon juice
• Salt and pepper
• Pine nuts
• Chopped basil

Toss the zucchini noodles and tomatoes with a drizzle of olive oil, a dash of lemon juice and salt and pepper to taste. Pour pesto sauce over the noodles and mix until evenly coated. Top with pine nuts and chopped basil. Can be enjoyed immediately but this tastes best if refrigerated 2-4 hours. Enjoy! Z
