How to Make It
Step 1
Spiralize the zucchini and add to a bowl. Toss the zucchini with salt, pepper, and olive oil. Set it aside.
Step 2
In a separate bowl, combine pesto and Greek yogurt. Mix well to combine. Add salt to taste.
Step 3
Preheat the oven to 220°C (425°F). Line a baking tray with parchment paper. Shred the mozzarella cheese. Place the zucchini noodles on the prepared baking tray and form into nests. Sprinkle each nest with shredded mozzarella cheese. Bake for 2-3 minutes.
Step 4
Slice the cherry tomatoes. Finely chop the parsley. Remove the zucchini from the oven and add a dollop of the pesto yogurt mixture into each nest. Crack the egg on top. Divide the cherry tomatoes among nests and sprinkle with parsley and salt to taste. Continue to bake for another 10-12 minutes.
Step 5
Shred the parmesan cheese. Sprinkle each nest with some parmesan and season with more salt or black pepper to taste. Serve immediately.
