INGREDIENTS
1/3 cup raw cashews (45g)
150g cauliflower florets
1 medium zucchini (196g), spiralized
2 tbsp nutritional yeast (16g)
3 oz extra-firm tofu (85g), cubed
1 tbsp hemp seeds (10g)
1 garlic clove
1 tbsp lemon juice
1/2 cup water
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
In a small saucepan, combine the cauliflower florets, garlic, lemon juice, water, and a pinch of salt. Bring to a simmer and cook until the cauliflower is tender, about 8-10 minutes.
Add the softened cauliflower mixture to a high-speed blender along with the raw cashews, nutritional yeast, and a few cracks of black pepper. Blend until smooth and creamy. Adjust thickness with additional water if necessary.
Meanwhile, heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly sauté the cubed tofu until golden on all sides. This should take about 5 minutes.
Using a spiralizer or a vegetable peeler, turn the zucchini into noodles. If desired, toss the zucchini noodles in the skillet for 1-2 minutes just to warm them slightly without losing their crunch.
Combine the zucchini noodles with the creamy sauce in a bowl. Gently fold in the sautéed tofu and sprinkle hemp seeds over the top.
Season with additional salt and pepper to taste, and serve immediately.
