Raw Wednesday - Zucchini Pomodoro


“ We do not grow absolutely, chronologically. We grow sometimes in one dimension, and not in another; unevenly. We grow partially. We are relative. We are mature in one realm, childish in another. The past, present, and future mingle and pull us backward, forward, or fix us in the present. We are made up of layers, cells, constellations. ” — Anais Nin

Do you ever find a recipe you love so much that you make it over and over for dinner 5 nights in a row. this is one of them. 

The older I get the more I realize I'm having more and more in common with my mom. I'm not ready to admit that I may be turning into her but ... when we get together we can converse for hours about books and health all while spending hours in thrift stores. 

this was one of those days. My mom and I had just got back from thrift shopping (we bought mainly books) super hungry and wanting to try a raw vegan recipe she had found online.  
out came the fresh tomatoes and zucchini  from their garden - boy do I love that garden. and together we made this fresh lunch. 
This is one of those recipes that you can eat 3 bowls of and not feel guilty at all. in fact the more you eat the fresher you feel. and it takes no time at all. 

Raw Zucchini Pomodoro


3 small zucchinis 
1 cup tomatoes
1/4 cup olive oil 
1 date
2 tsp parsley 
1 tsp of salt 
2 garlic cloves

if you have a veggie spiralizer, great, get that guy out and make your zucchini noodles. If not grating the zucchini is fine however make sure for both ways you use paper towel to soak up the excess water otherwise your pomodoro will turn into pomo-soup 

blend the rest of the ingredients in a food processer on medium. you still want it a bit chunky. 

pour over noodles 

it really is that easy.
