INGREDIENTS
2 medium Zucchini
1 cup Blistered Tomatoes
1/4 cup Cashews
1 tbsp Nutritional Yeast
200g Silken Tofu
1 tbsp Olive Oil
1/4 cup Fresh Basil
1 clove Garlic
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
PREPARATION
Using a spiralizer, create noodles from the zucchinis and set them aside in a bowl.
For the pesto, combine cashews, fresh basil, nutritional yeast, garlic, lemon juice, and olive oil in a blender. Blend until smooth, adding a little water if necessary for a creamier consistency.
Mix the silken tofu into the pesto until well incorporated, creating a creamy sauce.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add a few drops of olive oil. Add the tomatoes and cook until their skins blister and they soften slightly, stirring occasionally.
Toss the zucchini noodles with the creamy vegan pesto sauce. Gently fold in the blistered tomatoes.
Season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve immediately, enjoying the contrast of warm tomatoes with cool, fresh noodles.
