The healthiest way to satisfy those carbs cravings
Join me in The Global Girl’s kitchen for one of my all-time favorite raw vegan pasta recipes! This quick, easy and super delicious zucchini pasta recipe is one of my staples and a delight for all pasta lovers! I’m sure you’ll LOVE this filling, healthy and satisfying gluten-free and dairy-free meal that’s perfect to satisfy those carbs and pasta cravings.
The creamy cilantro and cashew sauce is insanely awesome and very cleansing as well (perfect for Spring). Cilantro is a raw food detox fave. It’s amazing at pulling heavy metals from the body, so it’s fabulous for weight loss (check out the post I wrote about the connection between toxins, the liver and weight loss, here).
