So light yet perfectly nourishing, this simple dish is wonderfully refreshing on a warm summer day.

Ingredients (serves 2)

- 2 large zucchini, spiralized

- 1 avocado, cut in half and sliced

- 1 Tablespoon nutritional yeast

- red pepper flakes, to garnish

- a few fresh parsley sprigs, to garnish

Cashew cream

- 1/2 cup cashews, soaked overnight then drained and rinsed

- 1 garlic clove

- 2 Tablespoons nutritional yeast

- 2 Tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice

- 2-3 Tablespoons water

To prepare the cashew cream, simply place all the ingredients in the blender and pulse until smooth. If you prefer a creamier consistency, gradually add in more water. Taste and adjust the seasonings.
