INGREDIENTS
2 medium Zucchini (~300g)
1 cup Fresh Basil leaves
2 cloves Garlic
2 tbsp Pine Nuts
3 tbsp Nutritional Yeast
1 cup Chickpeas (canned, low sodium)
50g Firm Tofu
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
PREPARATION
Using a spiralizer or vegetable peeler, create noodles from the zucchini and set aside in a large bowl.
In a high-speed blender or food processor, combine the fresh basil, garlic, pine nuts, nutritional yeast, lemon juice, and a splash of water. Blend until smooth to form a creamy vegan pesto.
Pour the pesto over the zucchini noodles and toss gently to ensure even coating.
Carefully fold in the chickpeas and crumbled firm tofu, mixing to incorporate the flavors without breaking up the tofu too much.
Season with a pinch of salt and adjust lemon juice to taste. Serve immediately for the freshest flavor.
