8 oz brown rice pasta
4 small zucchini, spiralized
1 tbsp olive oil
1 8 oz jar sundried tomatoes, packed in oil
2 garlic cloves, minced
juice & zest of one lemon
1/2 cup basil leaves
1/2 cup parmesan cheese
1/2 cup toasted pine nuts
red pepper flakes
salt and freshly ground black pepper

Cook the rice pasta acording to package directions.
Meanwhile, add the tomatoes, the oil they were packed in, garlic, lemon juice and zest, basil, pine nuts, pinch of red pepper flakes and parmesan cheese to a blender or food processor.
