Ingredients
Directions
- Pesto: Combine the macadamia nuts, cilantro, garlic, extra-virgin olive oil, sea salt and black pepper in a food processor and blend until smooth.
- Fettuccine: Bring a pot of water to boil with a steam tray over top. While water is heating, peel the zucchini very carefully into noodles until you reach the center seedy part. Steam the squash "noodles" for about 3-5 minutes.
- Next, steam the shrimp for about 3 minutes or until they're pink all the way through. Toss the shrimp with the pesto and serve over the squash noodles. Enjoy!
