I am all about easy eating. I definitely enjoy a challenge on occasion, like my previous post on Mexican Spaghetti, but when I don't have the time, meals can sometimes be a little difficult with The Body Ecology Diet because you have to actually make something. This simple zucchini dish is a fabulous treat, full of flavor, and takes no time at all! It's a nice alternative to fettuccine alfredo.
What you will need: (Serves 2) -3 large zucchini squash. If smaller, 6. -3 tablespoons of ghee -A splash (2 teaspoons) of lemon juice -1 tablespoon sugar-free plain kefir (this adds a creamier texture and a nice flavor but the dish is fine without it!) -1 clove minced garlic -3 teaspoons sea salt. -3 teaspoons pepper *With the seasonings, you can alter to your taste preference! -In a food processor or with a vegetable peeler, shave zucchini into noodle-like strips. -Place 1 tablespoon of ghee in pan on medium-high heat and cook minced garlic until it turns clear. -Add zucchini, 2 tablespoons of ghee, salt, and pepper and saute on medium-high until zucchini is tender (approx. 8 minutes)- but try not to overcook to preserve nutrients. -Take pan off heat and while stirring, add kefir. -Squeeze lemon and voila! If you have the time, it also tastes great with a little bit of vegan parmesan cheese on top! I make larger batches of this high-protein treat and store in the refrigerator for convenience to add to salads on other dishes. -1/3 cup raw cashews -1/4 teaspoon mustard powder -1/4 teaspoon salt -1/2 teaspoon fennel seeds Add all ingredients into a food processor (Cuisinart, Vitamix, or coffee grinder) until mixture becomes finely ground, similar to real sprinkle parmesan cheese.
