DESCRIPTION

Super flavorful cilantro-pepita pesto tossed with fettuccine and julienned summer squash makes a light and simple meal. You could skip the pasta altogether for a even lighter, gluten-free meal, but I liked the pasta-squash combination best.



INGREDIENTS

  • 1/3 cup raw pepitas (pumpkin seeds)
  • 1 cup packed cilantro (mostly leaves, about 2 bunches’ worth)
  • 2 teaspoons seeded and roughly chopped jalapeño
  • 2 cloves garlic, roughly chopped
  • 1 lime, juiced
  • 1/2 teaspoon fine-grain sea salt
  • 1/3 cup extra virgin olive oil
  • 8 ounces (1/2 pound) whole grain fettuccine or linguine
  • 2 small zucchini
  • 1 yellow squash
