Raw Tomato Pasta Sauce with Zucchini 'Pasta'
Dairy Free Gluten Free Sugar Free Vegan
Time: 30, Serves: 2

Turn a classic pasta dish into a nutrient-rich, high protein, vegan feast. This dish can be served cold and raw, or heated if you prefer. The ÔpastaÕ is made from zucchini and the sauce packed with protein!

Ingredients

1 punnet or cherry tomatoes

¼ cup loosely packed basil leaves

5 olives

¼ cup sun dried tomatoes

1 serve Just Natural Clean Lean Protein

½ clove garlic, finely grated

2-3 medium zucchini

Pinch of sea salt

1 tsp olive oil

Method
  1. Using a vegetable peeler, peel each zucchini into desired sized ribbons and continue peeling until you reach the centre seeds (the centre is a little bitter, so you can discard this part)
  2. Sprinkle salt and olive oil over zucchini and gently massage into noodles and set aside in a bowl.
  3. Blend all remaining ingredients in a blender to desired consistency.  Pulse or use a low setting so you can control the consistency a little easier.  The olives and sun dried tomatoes should add salt to the sauce, but taste for seasoning and adjust if necessary.
  4. Simply serve noodles topped with a few spoonfuls of sauce.
Leftover sauce can be stored in fridge for about 5 days. Sauce can be used on pizza, as a dip or on regular pasta.
