Allison Childress joins us on the show today make a healthy dish called Zoodle salad with creamy lemon dressing. Here is the recipe if you’d like to make this dish.
Zoodle Salad with Creamy Lemon Dressing
For the Salad:
1 zucchini, spiralized
1/2 c grape tomatoes, halved
Optional: 1/2 c protein (edamame, diced tofu, garbanzo/white/navy/cannelloni beans, quinoa, etc.)
For the Dressing:
1/4 c mayo (I like the olive oil version)
2 – 3 tbsp honey
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 tsp olive oil
1 tsp basil (fresh or dried)
1/2 tsp dill
1/2 tsp fresh-ground pepper, or to taste
pinch salt, optional
Stir to combine
Directions:
Spiralize the zucchini.
Add the diced tomatoes and protein.
Coat and toss with dressing. Doing this 15-20 minutes prior to eating will allow the dressing to soften the noodles and give them a more cooked taste and texture. Or simply microwave the entire plate of food for 30 seconds if you want a “hot meal”.
Yields: 2 healthy sized plates of food, or 3 more medium sized plates
