Spiralize the zucchinis into noodles and set aside.
In a food processor, combine basil leaves, pine nuts, Parmesan cheese, garlic, and lemon juice if using.
Pulse a few times to combine, then slowly add olive oil while blending until smooth.
Season the pesto with salt and pepper to taste.
In a large skillet over medium heat, sauté the zucchini noodles for 2-3 minutes until just tender.
Remove from heat and toss with the prepared pesto.
Garnish with cherry tomatoes if desired and serve immediately.
