I LOVE sweet potato noodles so much! And I love pesto so much! So I put the two together. Feel free to swap out the veggies for ones you prefer or have on hand, like snow peas, broccoli or kale, and to swap the pesto out for your favourite, if garlic scapes and pumpkin seeds aren’t your thing. <\/p>
