We hadn’t cooked a raw meal in a LONG time, because all we’ve been wanting recently is warming, comfort food. The guy I’m cooking meals for every day is trying to have a diet that is 60% raw now, which is somewhat a pain in the ass for me, but also a great excuse for me to start eating fresher, unbelievably healthy food. I love this dish, and it’s really not difficult to make at all (even though spiralizing the squash was kind of a bitch).
2 medium zucchini, spiralized
1 small or half of 1 large butternut squash, spiralized
2 tbsp raw sesame seeds
2 tbsp fresh cilantro, chopped
1 1/2 tbsp apple cider vinegar
1 tbsp lemon juice
1/2 tsp grated fresh ginger
1/2 tsp sea salt
1/4 tsp black pepper
- Using a mortar and pestal, crush sesame seeds until well ground
- Mix in lemon juice, cider vinegar, salt and pepper and crush again
- Toss together zucchini and butternut squash pasta with the cilantro, then mix in sesame seed sauce

This looks really tasty… and even better, easy! Just one question. How do you spiralize something? Is there a special gadget for this?
