If you’re a cheese lover, I highly recommend this cheese (While a bit pricey, a little goes a long way, it lasts a good amount of time, plus it is seriously incredible!). We love Parmigiano Reggiano best in this dish. Avoid canned Parmesan and go for a block of cheese to grate directly onto this dish. Good Parmesan cheese makes a big difference to overall flavor in Zucchini Pasta Sauce.

My absolute favorite in this zucchini pasta sauce is Rana’s® Basil Pesto (not sponsored).įeel free to add extra pesto to individual servings if you’re a huge pesto fan (like I am!). You’ll find fresh pesto near the fresh (not dried) pasta or in the produce section of the store. That said, the idea for this recipe is to be on the table as quickly as possible, so if you don’t have homemade pesto whipped up, store-bought works great.Īs far as packaged pesto goes, I recommend using freshly made basil pesto, not the preserved or jarred kind. Of course, if you want to make your own pesto, homemade is always best. This pasta dish practically screams summer: it’s vibrant, fresh, lively, and loaded with great summer produce like corn, summer squash, zucchini, and basil pesto. No one was the wiser in fact, there were rave reviews all around the table for Zucchini Pasta Sauce!


So when my family requested this creamy pesto pasta, I thought I’d put a spin on it and sneak in some veggies. Luckily for us, we’ve been gifted with plenty of zucchini and it’s ended up in everything I’ve been baking and cooking, from these gluten free zucchini muffins to this healthy zucchini bread and these enchilada stuffed zucchini boats. While I don’t have a garden bursting with zucchini right now, I have wonderful neighbors and friends that do. The creamiest, most flavor-packed Zucchini Pasta Sauce! Shredded zucchini, shredded summer squash, and fresh basil pesto make for the ultimate 30-minute summer pasta dish, wonderful for a weeknight dinner.
