Zucchini pasta with avocado sauce
You need (2 portions):
1-2 zucchinis (squash)
1 avocado
1 tbs olive oil or coconut oil for frying
1 tsp cumin
1 handful basil
1 tsp salt
1-2 tbsp pine nuts
1-2 tbsp nutritional yeast (optional)
How to:
Make thin slices of the zucchini with a spiralizer, cheese cutter or a knife. Warm some oil in a pan. Fry the zucchini on low heat until it becomes golden.
Meanwhile, cut the avocado in two and add it in a blender/food processor with basil, salt, cumin and nutritional yeast and some water if needed. Blend until you get a creamy consistency. You can choose how liquid you want the sauce to be.
Roast the pine nuts in a pan without oil. Make sure they don’t burn - they roast very quickly!
Add the avocado sauce into the pan and blend in the zucchini. Add some fresh basil and the roasted pine nuts on top - and voila! A plant based, healthy, warming and delicious dinner!
