I used basically the same recipe for the sauce that I made for my raw sushi recipe. It is so TASTY. This creamy, filling meal will leave you satisfied and full of energy. I could eat like 3 bowls of this - oh and guess what, I can! Ah, life is good. Enjoy!
zucchini pasta with tahini sauce, olives, cilantro & avocado: serves one or two
Pasta:
2 zucchinis
1/2 avocado
handful of olives
1 tablespoon hemp seeds
1/2 cup cilantro
1/4 cup sprouts
Tahini sauce:
2 tablespoons tahini
1 tablespoon miso
2 tablespoons peeled ginger root
1 tablespoon tamari
1 tablespoon agave nectar
1/8 cup water (more or less)
To make the sauce: blend all ingredients until smooth and creamy, adding liquid as needed. Set aside.
To make the pasta: slice your zukes on a spiral slicer or mandolin. Put in a bowl and pour your sauce on, rubbing it in with your hands or two spoons, until every noodle is covered. Cut up your avocado and throw it on along with the other toppings. Let it all sit for a minute to marinate then dig in!
Yum! Could I replace the agave with stevia?
ReplyDeleteYou sure could! Just be sure to add another liquid to balance out the consistency :)

DeleteWhat kind of sprilar did you use for the zucchini? Is there one that you highly recommend?
ReplyDeleteHey there, I use a Spirooli :) It's great! You could also just buy a mandolin, but they make flat noodles.
