INGREDIENTS
1 cup Cauliflower florets (107g)
3 tbsp Raw Cashews (25g)
1 medium Zucchini, spiralized (196g)
150g Firm Tofu
1/2 cup Cooked Chickpeas (125g)
2 tbsp Nutritional Yeast (16g)
1 Garlic Clove
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
Salt and Pepper to taste
1/2 cup Water (120g)
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F. Toss the cauliflower florets with a pinch of salt and pepper on a baking sheet and roast for 15-20 minutes until tender and lightly browned.
While the cauliflower roasts, prepare the sauce. In a high-speed blender, combine the raw cashews, firm tofu, cooked chickpeas, nutritional yeast, garlic clove, lemon juice, and water. Blend until completely smooth and creamy. Adjust consistency with a little extra water if needed.
Using a spiralizer, create zucchini noodles from the medium zucchini. If you don’t have a spiralizer, you can use a vegetable peeler to create thin ribbons.
In a large skillet over medium heat, gently warm the zucchini noodles for 2-3 minutes until just tender. Avoid overcooking so they retain a slight crunch.
Stir in the roasted cauliflower and pour the creamy cashew sauce over the noodles and cauliflower. Toss gently to combine, ensuring everything is evenly coated in the sauce. Heat through for another 2 minutes.
Season with additional salt and pepper to taste and serve immediately.
