Looking for a quick, nourishing, and protein-packed meal? This Super Green Pesto Courgetti is the perfect balance of freshness, flavor, and health—all in just 15 minutes!

Packed with antioxidant-rich dark leafy greens, creamy cashews, and protein-boosting tofu, this vibrant pesto is as delicious as it is nutritious. Tossed with lightly charred courgetti (zoodles), it’s a light yet satisfying dish that’s gluten-free, vegetarian (or vegan!), and bursting with bold flavors.

Whether you’re after a quick lunch, a post-workout meal, or a simple weeknight dinner, this dish will leave you feeling amazing. Plus, you can customize it with your favorite toppings—extra Parmesan, crunchy seeds, pine nuts, or even a dash of Tabasco for spice lovers!

Ingredients
 125 g baby spinach
 125 g kale leaves
 1 cup pre soaked cashews
 ½ tbsp chopped ginger
 ½ tbsp minced garlic
 2 tbsp chopped onions
 1 cup Parmesan (or nutritional yeast for a vegan version)
 500 g fresh tofu
 2 tsp salt
 2 tsp black pepper
 1 small green chilly for spice
 ½ lemon juice
 2 tbsp olive oil

Method
1

Blitz all the pesto ingredients in a high-speed blender until smooth. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.

2

Heat a wok until very hot, then add the spiralized courgettes.

3

Let them brown slightly for 1-2 minutes, tossing frequently to prevent them from releasing too much water.

4

Turn off the heat and stir in your fresh pesto, coating the courgetti evenly.

5

Top up with extra Parmesan, pine nuts, seeds, or a drizzle of Tabasco if you love heat like I do!
