Hola!

Wow… that’s all I can say about my zucchini plants. I can’t keep up with them! lol. I can’t believe I am saying this… but thats true. I pick so many that I feel I am eating zucchinis every day. The good news is that I love zucchini, so I just get creative and cook with them.

Today I am making a simple summer zucchini tart using fresh herbs and zucchini from the garden. I am using an arugula pesto that I previously made and froze, but you can swap that for regular pesto, or whatever your favorite pesto is. Just be aware that the flavor might change a little bit.

Lets get to work!
