- 1/2 cup pine nuts
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 cloves garlic
- 1 cup fresh basil leaves
- 1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil

Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
- In a baking sheet, combine the spiralized zucchini, cherry tomatoes, and sliced bell peppers. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat evenly.
- Roast in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the vegetables are tender and slightly caramelized.
