Ingredients
- 2 zucchinis, spiralized
- 4 tbsp vegan pesto
- Optional: boiled shrimp, cherry tomatoes
For Vegan Pesto
- A bunch of basil leaves (~20)
- 5 tbsp pine nuts or walnuts
- 3 tbsp nutritional yeast
- Sea salt
- Olive oil
Instructions
Use a spiralizer or a potato peeler to create zucchini spirals and place them in a bowl. For the pesto, blend a bunch of basil leaves (about 20), 5 tbsp pine nuts or walnuts, 3 tbsp nutritional yeast, sea salt, and olive oil in a blender. Mix the pesto with the zucchini noodles. Optionally, add boiled or sautéed shrimp, diced tofu, or similar for extra protein. If desired, you can briefly sauté the zucchini noodles in a pan with a bit of olive oil, especially on a cold day for a warmer dish.
For added protein, consider topping with boiled or sautéed shrimp, tofu cubes, or other protein sources.
