INGREDIENTS
2 cups Cauliflower Florets (~200g)
1/4 cup Raw Cashews (~35g)
1/2 cup Unsweetened Almond Milk (~120g)
1 medium Zucchini (spiralized)
0.75 cup Chickpeas, drained (~123g)
100g Extra-Firm Tofu
1 Garlic Clove
2 Tbsp Nutritional Yeast
1 Tbsp Lemon Juice
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Steam the cauliflower florets until very tender, about 8-10 minutes.
Meanwhile, drain and rinse the chickpeas. Cube the tofu into small pieces.
In a high-speed blender, combine the steamed cauliflower, raw cashews, unsweetened almond milk, garlic, nutritional yeast, and lemon juice. Blend until completely smooth to create a creamy sauce.
Season the sauce with salt and pepper to taste.
In a large pan over medium heat, lightly sauté the tofu cubes until golden on all sides, then add the chickpeas to warm through.
Add the zucchini noodles to the pan and toss gently to soften slightly, about 2-3 minutes.
Pour the creamy cauliflower-cashew sauce over the zucchini noodles, chickpeas, and tofu. Stir well to combine, heating everything through.
Taste and adjust salt, pepper, or lemon juice if needed. Serve immediately and enjoy your nutritious, protein-packed meal.
