INGREDIENTS
1 cup Cauliflower florets (~107g)
1/4 cup Raw Cashews (~36g)
1 medium Zucchini (spiralized, ~196g)
2 tbsp Nutritional Yeast (~16g)
1/2 cup Unsweetened Almond Milk (~120g)
150g Extra Firm Tofu
1/2 cup Green Peas (~80g)
1 Garlic Clove
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
PREPARATION
Prepare the sauce by steaming the cauliflower florets until tender, about 8-10 minutes.
While the cauliflower steams, blend the steamed cauliflower, soaked cashews, almond milk, garlic clove, lemon juice, and nutritional yeast until smooth and creamy.
Cube the extra firm tofu and lightly sauté in a nonstick pan until edges are golden. Set aside.
In a separate pot, quickly blanch the green peas for 2-3 minutes until vibrant.
Using a spiralizer, create zucchini noodles from the medium zucchini. Optionally, lightly sauté them for 1-2 minutes in a pan or serve raw.
Combine the zucchini noodles, sautéed tofu, and green peas in a large bowl. Pour the creamy cashew-cauliflower sauce over the mixture and gently toss to coat evenly.
Season with salt and pepper to taste, and garnish with extra nutritional yeast if desired before serving.
