Ingredients

• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 teaspoon honey
• 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
• 1 pinch salt and freshly ground black pepper
• 3 medium zucchini, ends trimmed
• 0.5 teaspoon dried basil
• 0.25 cup fresh lemon juice
• 0.33333334326744 cup extra-virgin olive oil
• 0.25 cup toasted pine nuts
• 0.25 cup chopped cilantro leaves and stems

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Whisk lemon juice, garlic, Dijon mustard, honey, basil, salt, and pepper together in a small bowl. Drizzle in olive oil and whisk until vinaigrette emulsifies; set aside.

Step 2

Spiralize the zucchini into noodles using the thin blade. The strands will be very long, so cut them into manageable lengths with kitchen shears. Place zucchini noodles in a large bowl and add cilantro.

Step 3

Pour the vinaigrette over the noodles right before serving. Toss to gently coat. Taste and adjust the seasoning, if necessary. Sprinkle with pine nuts and serve immediately.
