Courgetti with Basil Pesto
Courgetti (or “Zoodles”) is one of those quick dinner staples that’s so incredibly easy to make, but never fails to impress. If you don’t fancy diving into a bowl of carbs, it’s a bit of a knight in shining armor and subs in perfectly for a bowl of spaghetti. We love it with a good dollop of homemade vegan pesto.

2 x courgettes (zucchini)
A dash of olive oil
A spiraliser
