A friend of ours made a cooked version of this dish and we really loved it, so we made a raw version of it. This recipe is best made with thin zoodles, but if you don’t have a spirooli, you can use julienned zucchini. The mint must be fresh.

Optional: Cilantro. I think it tastes better without it or with a couple tablespoons.

Optional: Peanuts. I usually make mine without nuts.

This is a quick lunch I use when I can’t think of anything else I’d like to have, or when I’m tired of having smoothies for breakfast. It’s also good to make in the morning and take along for lunch, stirring in a drizzle of lemon or lime juice to keep the apples from turning brown.

Refreshing and yummy!

Like the classic only Raw and still just as good!

Hot, Hot, Hot! A bit of New Mexico to you. Enjoy but BEWARE!
