Elevate your raw vegan diet with this easy, refreshing, delicious dinner. These zucchini noodles are smothered in a basil cream sauce and topped with beautifully plump plum tomatoes and optional pine nuts. Made from cashews, the basil cream sauce has a luxurious, creamy texture and incredible depth of flavor. Think of it like a cross between pesto and Alfredo sauces, only without the high sodium and fat content from jarred varieties. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Even though this recipe seems difficult to make, it only requires 15 minutes of your time. Use a spiralizer to spiralize the zucchini and then blot the zucchini noodles dry. The last thing you want is extra moisture in your zucchini noodles. You can make the sauce either before or after you spiralize the zucchini. Ideally, use a food processor instead of a high-speed blender. The food processor will blend the ingredients much more efficiently and quickly. If you fall in love with the sauce after tasting it, consider making it again to use as a dip for raw vegetables. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
When it comes to plating the zucchini noodles, make sure that you toss them in the sauce prior to plating. You have the option to mix the tomatoes into the noodles, or you can serve them on the side (like they are in the picture). If you want more flavor and texture, sprinkle some raw pine nuts on top of each plate of zucchini noodles. Pine nuts too expensive? Chop up some leftover raw cashews and use them instead!<\/p>\n
