The zucchini is getting ripe and we are joking it is time to close the car windows so you don't get donations. But this recipe is great with that abundance and the basil that is also prolific this time of year.
1/2 cup chopped, fresh basil
4 to 5 leaves chopped, fresh parsley
1/4 cup toasted pine nuts
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon grated Parmesan cheese
1 clove garlic, minced
2 teaspoons lemon juice
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 medium summer squash, (about 1 pound), sliced diagonally 1/4 inch thick
Canola or olive oil cooking spray
Preheat grill to medium-high. Combine basil, parsley, pine nuts, oil, Parmesan, garlic, lemon juice and salt in a small bowl (You can pulse in a food processor, but it is not needed.) Coat both sides of squash slices with cooking spray. Grill the squash until browned and tender, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Serve topped with the pesto.
