This pesto is so yummy that you can spread it on crackers and raw veggies. The zest of the lemon and the sweetness of the basil are a perfect blend. Olive oil and lemon juice make a perfect combination to stimulate your liver and gall bladder. The zucchini adds fiber and crunch. You can serve this as a main dish or a side salad. Bon Appétit!
