Raw Zucchini Pasta with Avocado and Basil Cream

Raw Zucchini Pasta with a raw creamy avocado and basil sauce and sweet cherry tomatoes. It’s just as good as it sounds. Fresh and absolutely wonderful. One glorious benefit of the often-times sweltering summer heat is that it encourages us to step away from the stove, pick up a fun kitchen gadget like a spiralizer, and keep it fresh, raw, and light instead. Enjoy!
