Summary
Using a large volume of spiralized zucchini in lieu of some of the spaghetti here adds flavor, texture, and color to this pasta. It also makes it a little lighter on the appetite (not to mention the calories). Using store-bought pesto embellished with a generous squeeze of Meyer lemon is an easy way to deliver flavor to this quick weekday dish.
Ingredients
