If you're after something filling, fresh and tasty, this is the perfect dish and a great way to use up Zucchini in the Autumn. Kids love helping make the noodles too!

 

Spiralise* 4 Zucchini (ratio is about 1 Zucchini per person or more depending on appetite), toss in a little Salt and Olive Oil and set aside.

 

1½ Cups Sun Dried Tomatoes (soaked for 1-2 hours)

4 Large Fresh Tomatoes

1 Clove of Garlic

¼ Red Onion

1 Cup of Fresh Basil Leaves

1 Tablespoon fresh Oregano

½ Cup Flat Leaf Parsley

½ teaspoon Chipotle Pepper

2 Tablespoons Olive Oil

1 Tablespoon Coconut Nectar

A splash of Red Wine Vinegar

Salt and pepper to taste

 

1)  Blend all the sauce ingredients.

2)  Remove any excess water from the Zucchini and arrange on serving plates.

3)  Top with sauce.

• You can add ‘Parmesan’ cheese to this dish, and also a few Olives are a nice touch.
• If you’re in a real hurry, you can add a Tablespoon or two of Italian Herbs to replace the fresh, but fresh really is best!

2 Cups of Pine Nuts

½ cup Water

1tsp Olive Oil

1 tablespoon Sea Salt

2 tablespoons Lemon Juice

2 tablespoons Nutritional Yeast

 

Process all ingredients in a food processor. Spread across a dehydrator sheet or baking paper in a thin layer (around 2-3mm). Dehydrate till firm- about 12 hours. Turn over onto another tray or fresh baking paper and dehydrate a further 24 hours. Remove, cool andbreak into shards. Store in an airtight container in the fridge. This stuff lasts forever and is a great additional any salad, pizza, you name it!

 

 * You can buy a spiraliser at most kitchen stores, there are many varieties, you can also buy online http://www.therawfoodstore.com.au/products/gefu-spirelli-duo-spiral-slicer , mine is a bigger model with a handle which I prefer for doing bulk loads, you can also just buy a veggie peeler with small teeth in it. If you like the thicker 'fettucine' ribbons, a veggie peeler will do that just fine too!
