Pure Simplicity

I have this dish at least once a week. It is perfect to take to work for lunch or for a light dinner. WARNING! Once you try veg noodles you will NEVER go back! 

Carrot & Courgette Noodles  [ with Lemon & Basil Dressing ]

For the Noodles

1 Courgette

1 Carrot

1 handful of Kale

1/2 cup Flame Raisins

1/4 cup Walnuts

Basil Pesto

2 handfuls of basil leaves

1 garlic clove

Juice 1/2 a Lemon - ( or more for a zingy sauce)

1/8 cup cashews

4tbsp Olive oil ( or oil of choice )

Salt - to taste

To make veg noodles you will need a spiral slicer or grater. They are really cool and I use mine all the time. Alternatively you could use a toothed peeler, or a Mandolin with suitable attachment.

I make a batch of Pesto regularly, and only use a few teaspoons (if that) at a time on my noodles or other salads. It keeps well in the fridge for at least a few days if covered.
