Zucchini Pomodoro

One of our absolute favorites! It's quick to make and tastes just as good as the regular pasta version, without the heavy feeling post-meal!

Serves: 1

Why It's So Good For You

Zucchini provides you with lutein and zeaxanthin, two carotenoids that promote healthy eyesight! They're also a source of magnesium, folate and fiber.


Ingredients

(use organic ingredients where possible)

  • 3 zucchinis
  • 1 cup tomatoes
  • 6 soaked sun dried tomatoes
  • ¼ cup olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 1 date
  • 2 tbsp parsley or basil
  • 1 tsp sea salt

Directions

  1. Spiralize the zucchini into noodles, or with a peeler into ribbons, and place in a large serving bowl.
  2. For the sauce, place remaining ingredients in food processor/ blender until smooth.
  3. To serve, place the zucchini noodles/ ribbons into bowls and pour the raw source over the top, just like you would for a bowl of pasta.

Note*

  • You can eat these zucchini spirals raw but in the winter you could blanch them in boiling water for two minutes so you can serve this dish hot.
