Notes
Speedy Meal Prep: Slice the zucchini into evenly thin rounds to ensure they cook quickly and evenly.
Salt Pasta Thoughtfully: Season the pasta cooking water generously with salt; it's your chance to infuse flavor right from the start.
Tomato Varieties: Mix and match different types of cherry tomatoes, such as heirloom or yellow varieties, for a visually stunning and flavorful twist.
Store Leftovers with Care: If you have leftover pasta, store it separately from the pesto to prevent the pasta from becoming too oily. Reheat and toss together before serving.
