Tomato-Zucchini Antipasto with Mango-Basil “Pesto” (or “Salsa”… you take your pick)

Okay, so clearly this isn’t true “pesto”, and as it has neither onions nor garlic, it’s not really a “salsa” either. But you get the gist… call it what you like, just call it good.
And you can always add some red onions or a bit of fresh garlic to this recipe, or sprinkle some raw pine nuts over top for that pesto feel. As the recipe stands, however, it’s light, flavorful, filling, and low-fat!
This makes a nice light main-dish and whips up in minutes. You can also make it ahead of time, and it holds well for parties. It would make a brilliant sauce for fresh fish, or a filler for a raw or “rawish” sandwich. And it makes a great side dish when paired with something cooked, such as rice or roasted potatoes.
And if you have any leftovers, do what I did and just blend it up into a slightly-savory smoothie! Don’t let any of this go to waste!
