INGREDIENTS
150g Extra-firm Tofu
1/4 cup Raw Cashews (≈30g)
2 tbsp Nutritional Yeast (≈16g)
2 medium Zucchinis
1 cup Cherry Tomatoes
1/2 tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 cup Fresh Basil Leaves
1 clove Garlic
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Drain and press the tofu to remove excess moisture, then cut it into small cubes.
In a high-speed blender, combine the cashews, nutritional yeast, basil leaves, garlic, lemon juice, olive oil, salt, and pepper. Blend until smooth, adding a splash of water if necessary to achieve a creamy consistency.
Using a spiralizer or a vegetable peeler, create zucchini noodles from the zucchinis. Place them in a large bowl.
Toss the zucchini noodles with the tofu cubes and cherry tomatoes.
Pour the creamy vegan pesto over the zoodles and gently mix to ensure everything is evenly coated.
Season with additional salt and pepper if needed and serve immediately for a fresh, vibrant meal.
