"This vegetarian pesto courgette n’ carrot noodles with feta cheese and olives came out of that desperado need to have a break from meat. The freshness, crispness and the vibrance of this dish is amazing. A real winner indeed. It is one of those recipes that will quickly turn into your favourite. It is so refreshing! ? This is one of my salads that are in the clear category of Healthy Fast Food as it is very quick to make, pure wholesomeness, all you need it is a good spiraliser."

NotesI have added some lemon zest in the past or some mint. Amazingly fresh.
Most times I use garlic stuffed olives but truthfully any kind or flavour, kind and herbed olives would do.
I also do replace the courgette with spiralised cucumber ?? or ‘the curly C' as my daughter calls it.
If you are into salads, you coud also try this superb red cabbage and carrot salad red cabbage salad or this beautiful broccoli salad two superb choices to go with a summer BBQ.
I will come back with more recipes of this type so if you are a bit of a salad freak just like myself, stay tuned.
