Zoodles with vegan ‘cheese’

Zoodles with vegan ‘cheese’



After this salad, you’ll stop looking for any other noodles or cheese 🙂
This one is simply amazing! Fresh, crunchy, flavorful — and so healthy.

Ingredients

For the Salad

• 1 large zucchini, spiralized into “noodles”
• 1 handful chopped parsley
• 2 small radishes, chopped
• 1 cup cooked edamame (cook from frozen following package instructions)
• 2 small cucumbers, chopped
• 2 green onions (green part only), chopped
• ½ cup cherry tomatoes, halved
• Fresh herbs: chopped oregano, basil, mint (I used all three for maximum flavor)
• 4 cauliflower florets
• Juice of 1 fresh lemon
• Salt, to taste
  
  

For the Dressing

• 1 tbsp tahini
• ½ cup filtered water
• 1 garlic clove, chopped
• Salt, to taste
  
  

Instructions

1. Prepare the salad base:
   Combine all the salad ingredients except the cauliflower in a bowl.
2. Make the cauliflower “flakes”:
   Place the cauliflower florets in a strong blender and pulse just until you get small cauliflower flakes.
   Do not over-blend — you don’t want a paste!
   Add the cauliflower flakes to the salad.
3. Make the dressing:
   In a separate bowl, whisk or blend the tahini, water, garlic, and salt until smooth.
   Mix well before pouring it over the salad.
4. Combine:
   Pour the dressing on top, mix everything gently, and enjoy!
