Vegetarian Vegan Gluten-Free Raw Made Easy salad raw healthy easy zucchini noodles

Ingredients

2 large zucchinis
1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
1 yellow bell pepper, thinly sliced
1/4 cup red onion, finely chopped
1/4 cup fresh basil leaves, chopped
1/4 cup pine nuts
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
Juice of 1 lemon
Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

Using a spiralizer or vegetable peeler, create zucchini noodles by shredding the zucchinis. Place the noodles in a large mixing bowl.
Add the cherry tomatoes, yellow bell pepper, red onion, and basil to the bowl with the zucchini noodles.
In a small skillet, toast the pine nuts over low heat until lightly golden. Be sure to keep an eye on them to prevent burning.
Once the pine nuts are toasted, add them to the mixing bowl with the rest of the ingredients.
In a small jar, combine the extra virgin olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Close the jar and shake vigorously to emulsify the dressing.
Pour the dressing over the zucchini noodle mixture and toss gently to coat all the ingredients evenly.
Allow the dish to sit for a few minutes to let the flavors meld together.
Serve the Raw Made Easy salad in individual bowls or on a large platter. Garnish with a few extra basil leaves for a pop of color.
