Veggie Pasta


Pasta
  • 1 large zucchini, peeled into noodles (can do with a Julian peeler)
  • pinch of salt
  • 1/2 cup frozen peas
  • 1/2 cup asparagus
Sauce
  • 1 avocado
  • ½ cup 4 cheese tomato sauce
  • 1 tablespoon Cajun seasoning
  • 6 TBSP water
  • 1 TBSP lemon juice
  • zest of 1 lemon
  • ½ tsp garlic salt
  • 1/4 tsp ground pepper
  • 1 TBSP fresh thyme

  1. Peel the zucchini. Using a vegetable peeler (the results are more fettuccine-like noodles) or a spiralizer, prepare a large bowl of zucchini noodles. 
  2. Sprinkle the zucchini noodles with salt and let them sit
  3. In a blender combine the sauce ingredients and blend until smooth.
  4. Remove the asparagus and peas from the freezer and place them in a large bowl. 
  5. Boil a kettle of water. Pour the hot water over the asparagus and peas and let them sit for 1-2 minutes. 
  6. Drain the water and add the vegetables to the zucchini noodles. Pour the sauce over the noodles and toss to coat.
