Raw zucchini and enoki mushroom pasta with tomato sauce and chickpea puree.
Awful photo (we ate late) for an incredible meal. Finely shredded zucchini and raw enoki lightly salted and left to sit while the sauce was being prepared - blended tomatoes, garlic, onion, green chilli, basil, oregano (all raw) with salt, pepper, balsamic vinegar, olive oil and a little sugar. The base is cooked chickpeas pureed with a little of the tomato sauce and a few silver beet leaves. Dressed with olive oil, crunchy sprouts and extra salt.
Creamy garlic broccoli pasta, with home-made coconut yogurt.
This was exceptional. The sauce was so creamy and rich, without tasting coconutty. I fried a crushed clove of garlic with some broccoli from my garden and some grated zucchini, salt and pepper. Then I added about 1/2 a cup of coconut yogurt (coconut milk, tapioca starch, non-dairy yogurt culture), some water and nutritional yeast. I let that simmer for a little while then stirred through some cooked pasta, and topped it off with toasted nuts and seeds.
