I continued with my light raw menus, mainly juices and salads...But since I was meeting with my Girlfriends Nancy and Viola, I thought I would treat them to some delicious Raw Zucchini pasta for lunch before going to Journey of Health free introductory class which by the way RAWKED!
The girls were totally amazed of how good it was and the fact that it was only made out of cashews!!! So as I promised here it goes the recipe:
CREAMY DILL PASTA
Serves: 3 Cups
Ingredients:
-5 Cups of Noodles made from 2 Medium Zucchinis (See below)
-1 Cup of Raw Cashews
-1/3 Cup of Water
-1 tsp sea salt
-1/8 tsp cayenne
-2 Tbsp olive oil
-1 Tbsp apple cider vinegar
- 1 clove garlic
-1/2 packed cup fresh dill (Chopped a bit)
Preparation:
-Noodles: When making noodles is not necessary to peel Zucchini. Make Noodles by putting through a Spirooli Slicer and put aside (If you are planning to get more into raw foods this handy tool will be a good $50.00 investment but not necessary as you can make a julienne peeler to make long noodles strips) I bought mine through Raw Nutrition.
-Sauce: Blend all ingredients, except Zucchini and Dill, until smooth (When Blending seeds and nuts a Vitamix is recommended). Stir dill into Sauce in blender. Blend Briefly so pieces of dill are visible, and sauce remains white (Instead of turning green)
Pour Sauce over Zucchini noodles and toss to coat pasta! Enjoy!
I believe I am going through some detox as this is my 5th day that I have been 100% Raw. Have anyone experience detox only by eating raw foods? I am just curious! So for today, I will continue with my juices. Tomorrow I will post today food intake and show you some pics of my sunflower sprouts which will be ready to eat tomorrow! This is the first time I ever sprouted and is not bad! Not as complicated as I thought! So if I can do it anyone can do it!
Have a great day!
PD...I am grateful because my Fiancé will be home tonight and because he embraces my new adventure in the awesome rawsome world!
Hey Silvi, thanks for the great pasta lunch yesterday.
ReplyDeleteGlen had some of the leftover. He doesn't like zucchini at all so when he tasted it he said he actually liked the taste of it and this is the first time he is not gagging when eating zucchini :)
