Hello Dear Readers:
I have the most amazing recipe to share with you. I discovered it while searching Pinterest for something to use my zucchini from our CSA farm and these delicious and nutritious sesame seeds from Jiva Organics. YUM...so without further ado:
Sesame zucchini noodles (inspired by the recipe found at : Zen Belly Catering )
prep time: 30 minutes | cook time: 0 | serves: 4
2 pounds zucchini (about 6 medium)
1 teaspoon finely ground sea salt
1/4 cup tahini
1 (1-inch) piece fresh ginger, peeled and grated
2 tablespoons coconut aminos
1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1 small bunch scallions, sliced
2 tablespoons black sesame seeds
1 teaspoon finely ground sea salt
1/4 cup tahini
1 (1-inch) piece fresh ginger, peeled and grated
2 tablespoons coconut aminos
1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1 small bunch scallions, sliced
2 tablespoons black sesame seeds
- Peel the zucchini (if desired) use a spiral slicer to make the zucchini pasta.
- Place in a colander and toss with the salt. Allow to sit and sweat out the excess liquid for 20 to 30 minutes.
- Meanwhile, mix together the tahini, grated ginger, coconut aminos, sesame oil and red pepper flakes.
- Once the zucchini noodles have sat for 20 to 30 minutes, give them a rinse under cold water and drain them well. Dump them out onto several layers of paper towels or a kitchen towel to get out any excess moisture.
- Stir the noodles into the sauce and top with the sliced scallions, and sesame seeds.

They were delicious and added that perfect healthy crunch to this dish!!
