“Ravish Me!” Ravioli Alfredoraw food recipe for Valentine's Day ravioli

Ingredients:

  • 2 cups almonds, soaked and drained
  • 2 cups zucchini
  • 2 teaspoons Himalayan salt
  • 1 clove fresh garlic
  • 2 teaspoons oregano
  • 1/2 cup minced sweet onion
  • 1/2 cup minced bell pepper

Ingredients for Sauce:

  • 2 teaspoons mellow un-pasteurized miso
  • 2 tablespoons of olive oil
  • 1/2 cup raw pine nuts
  • 1/2 cup cashews soaked at least one hour and drained
  • 1 clove fresh garlic
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • Himalayan salt to taste
  • Black pepper to taste
  • 1/2 cup nut milk
  • 1/2 cup zucchini, peeled and chopped fine
  • Nutritional yeast to taste
  • Parsley for garnish

Directions:

Process the ravioli ingredients (except for the sweet onion and bell pepper) together in a food processor until creamy. Transfer creamy mixture to a bowl and the sweet onion and the bell pepper by hand to the mixture. Leave large butter lettuce out long enough to wilt, remove the heavy center vein. Place 1 tablespoon of mixture into each lettuce leaf and roll to wrap up tightly to form the ravioli. Blend the Alfredo sauce ingredients except the parsley in a blender and blend until smooth. Place four raviolis on each plate and top with Alfredo sauce. Garnish all around the plate with parsley and serve. Devour!
