15-MINUTE DINNERS: Zoodles with Creamy Avocado Cilantro Sauce and Cherry Tomatoes
Zucchini noodles - aka "zoodles" - are the perfect light, vibrant and healthy meal. If you've never tried zucchini noodles, then I can highly recommend you to try them. Not only are they low in carbs and calories, they're also easy to cook, and make a great substitute for pasta noodles.
Ever since we swapped regular pasta for zoodles, we have been hooked. Not only to zucchini noodles but pasta made from sweet potatoes, red beans, pumpkin, and carrot are super delicious too.
Zoodles with Creamy Avocado Cilantro Sauce and Cherry Tomatoes
Ingredients (Serves 2)
- 2 zucchini, spiralized
- 1.5 cup cherry tomatoes, halved or quartered
FYI: CLICK HERE for more info on how to spiralize veggies.
For the avocado cilantro sauce
- 1 avocado
- 1 cup cilantro
- 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- 1 clove of garlic
- 1 red onion, roughly chopped
- 1/2 lime, juice only
- Sea salt and pepper to taste
- Water
Directions
- Spiralize zucchini.
- Add all sauce ingredients to a blender and blend until smooth.
- In a large bowl mix avocado sauce, zoodles, and cherry tomatoes.
FYI: I like raw zoodles but if you want things hot, add cherry tomatoes to a pan and cook for a few minutes. Then add zucchini noodles or zoodles and cook until heated through. When ready add avocado sauce, stir well to coat and remove from heat.
