Vegan, quick and super healthy pasta sauce
Lately we have been making an effort to eat more plant-based food as well as more legumes in substitution to meat. This recipe ticks both boxes! A balanced meal served in no time! My toddler is not really into beans, but he liked this so much that he ate half of the pesto with a spoon before the pasta was even ready.
No reason to limit this to pasta either... the leftover is going to be used as a spread on a bruschetta tomorrow with some fresh tomatoes on top

How well do you think this would freeze. I'm hesitant because of the zucchini. Thanks so much.
