Ingredients

For the Carrot Pasta:
  • 5 large carrot peeled and spiraled into noodles
  • 1/3 cup cashew roasted
  • 2 Tbsp cilantro finely chopped, fresh
For the Ginger-Lime Peanut Sauce:
  • 2 Tbsp peanut butter or almond butter, unsweetened, creamy
  • 4 Tbsp coconut milk
  • 2 Tbsp liquid aminos to taste
  • Pinch cayenne pepper
  • 2 large cloves garlic finely chopped, fresh
  • 1 Tbsp ginger peeled and grated, fresh
  • 1 Tbsp lime juice
  • kosher salt to taste

Instructions

To Prepare the Ginger-Lime Peanut Sauce:
    Cup of Yum
  1. Combine all ingredients in a small bowl and mix together until smooth and creamy.
To Prepare the Carrot Pasta:
  1. Wash carrots well, peel them, and pat them dry.
  2. Using your spiral slicer, make noodles out of all of the carrots. It will be more difficult to make the noodles once there is only a few inches of carrot left, so you can grate what’s left of the carrot.
  3. Place all carrot noodles into a large serving bowl. Pour the Ginger-Lime Peanut Sauce over the noodles and gently toss together (I use my hands for this part).
  4. Serve with roasted cashews (or peanuts) and freshly chopped cilantro.

Notes

  • If you don't have a spiral slicer, you can simply grate the carrots with a box grater to make this recipe. :D
