This is a wonderful, vibrant, and flavorful way to enjoy raw zucchini noodles. It combines the creaminess of avocado pesto with the textural crunch of zucchinie noodles. Is it a meal? Yes, but it is also as nourishing as it is delicious. Spice up your dinner routine and get away from salads by making this incredibly easy raw vegan entree. As you’ll see when you make it, the ingredients and steps are quite simple. You don’t need to overcomplicate recipes; rather, you just need quality ingredients.

The raw vegan world celebrates zucchini noodles and the majesty of the spiralizer. They are quite versatile and give you the feeling of indulging in spaghetti, only you don’t feel that common feeling of bloating and digestive discomfort that can result after eating a giant bowl of pasta. A bowl of zoodles covered in a creamy pesto is also a great introductory meal into the raw vegan world. The fresh basil and garlicky undertones come together beautiful in the beautiful pesto. Now, the pesto calls for raw walnuts, but if you enjoy the classic flavor of pine nuts in pesto, you can obtain raw pine nuts. Just keep in mind that pine nuts can be quite expensive, while raw walnuts are a much more affordable option.

The vibrant green pesto is a glorious celebration of fresh ingredients. Make sure to add nutritional yeast to achieve that signature cheesy flavor you know and expect from pesto. Fancy a bit of spice to your pesto? Feel free to add red pepper flakes! Love this recipe? Let us know in the comments or tag us on social media when you make the recipe.
