Spaghetti Bolognese- Raw Food Recipe


I couldn't believe how close this sauce looked to tradtional meat sauce. Feel free to peel and sprilize you zucchini noodles ahead of time. Just line a container with papertowels and this will keep your noodles nice and dry for the sauce.  As you will see in the video, i take the time to salt my portabello mushrooms. I highly recogmend trying this step because it brings out the mushroom flavor and also changes the texture and feel of the mushroom to more of a cooked texture.  You can find the recipe and video for the raw tomato garlic basil sauce on my channel too.  You can use all the sauce and all the mushrooms in the food processor to make extra bolonese or do like i did and leave some sauce out. I like to have some added texture and color  to the food (we eat with our eyes remember...but if you have kids, just use the noodle and bolognese sauce). I enjoyed this raw food recipe so much that im going to make it again this week for company. We had a large salad as our first course, so this recipe will make 3 bowls full of pasta and sauce or 2 extra big bowls.
