ZUCCHINI PASTA WITH AVOCADO MISO DRESSING



If you tried my Kelp Noodles with Avocado Miso Dressing, then you are sure to love this one as well.   This dish is very flavorful it really is satisfying on so many levels.  I love how the red and orange of the tomatoes and orange bell peppers stand out against the green.   I am making it again tonight for me an my hubby.


ZUCCHINI PASTA 

For the noodles and garnish
3 zucchini peeled and sliced noodle thin
2 cups of spinach shredded or chopped thin
Diced tomatoes and orange bell pepper
Sesame seeds

AVOCADO MISO DRESSING

For the dressing
1 medium ripe avocado
2 tablespoons miso
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 lemon, juice of
1 clove garlic
(If you do not want to use miso, you can leave it out and substitute it with some sea salt to taste.)

For the dressing, add all the ingredients for the dressing into the food processor and process until mixed smooth.

Put the zucchini noodles and spinach in a medium bowl and add the dressing little by little  to your desired amount and massage and toss by hand to coat the noodles.

Plate the noodles and then garnish with the tomatoes, orange bell pepper and sesame ~ and then eat with chopsticks if you so desire.   Super, super tasty.

Bon Appetit!

CHUNKY CHOPPED SALAD WITH AVOCADO DRESSING

 
 
I just  had to share this recipe because it's so simple and so flavorful.  The simpler the recipe the better right?   I LOVE avocados and I love using them as "dressing" for my salads.  This Chunky Chopped Salad wtih Avocado Dressing is super simmple and zesty, you will love it!

 

CHUNKY CHOPPED SALAD WITH AVOCADO DRESSING

 
1 cup cherry tomatoes cut in halves
1 cup chopped celery
1 cup chopped brocolli
1 ripe avocado
Juice of 1 lemon
Sea salt and pepper to taste
 
Chop all the vegetables, including the avocado and place in a medium bowl.  Squeeze in the juice of 1 lemon, season with sea salt and pepper and work in the avocado, smashing them ever so gently to get your "dressing" effect.  Voila!  The lemon juice not only gives adds great flavor but it also helps the avocado from turning brown. 
 
Bon Apetit!
