Raw Food Recipes

Satay Style Kalabasa Noodles

Satay-Style Butternut Noodles


You can make this dish using the spiralizer, vegetable peeler or grater.

This dish looks great, tastes fabulous and the noodle texture is incredibly satisfying and it really does feel like a cooked meal. It’s such a fun dish to share. If you decide to include some nuts, like my suggested cashews, it can easily be a filling, satisfying and incredibly healthy main meal.

I’d certainly recommend it if you want to create a special raw celebration dish, fancy treating yourself to something a bit more special one evening, or if you want to impress non-raw friends.

Ingredients for the noodles:

1/2 kalabasa
1 carrot grated or julienne
1 red pepper julienne
