Raw Zucchini Noodles with Peanut-Ginger Sauce

Zucchini noodles are amazing. So amazing in fact that I think everyone should have their own spiraliser to make their own vegetable noodles!! I only found out after we had all eaten dinner the other night that my dad did not even know he was eating zucchini and thought it was the usual 'pasta'.... Win!!



There are many recipes out there for vegetable noodle dishes as a healthy alternative to the usual pasta from packets, zucchini noodles seem to be by far the most popular and easier to make. With a love of peanut butter I came across a version of this recipe from the Fat free Vegan Kitchen and decided to give it a go with the risk of it being a little too 'zingy' for my family with some chili added (optional!!).


Raw Zucchini Noodles with Peanut-Ginger Sauce



Ingredients

1 whole green zucchini

1Tbsp organic peanut butter
1Tbsp water
1/2 Tbsp apple cider vinegar
2 cloves garlic crushed
1/2 Tbsp Tamari (or soy sauce)
1/2 tsp chilli
1/2 tsp fresh grated ginger

Spiralise the eashed Zucchini with the ends chopped off and set aside in a bowl.

In another small bowl mix together the rest of the ingredients until combined adding more water if you find it too thick. Mix in the zucchini noodles with chopped cherry tomatoes and serve!

How easy is that?? I made this for my family for a side dish tonight and will definitely be making this again either as aside or a full meal :)
