Kelp Noodle Alfredo Sauce

Creamy & Hearty but Raw & Vegan!

With the colder weather upon us, the cravings for hearty and creamy food seem to be increasing. This dish will not only satisfy those needs, but it’ll do that while staying true to you in a raw and vegan way.

We’re utilizing cashews, pine nuts, and hemp seeds to give you the various benefits of these nuts and their flavors and it’s garnished with broccoli microgreens to tie the whole dish together.

The Benefits of Raw & Vegan

Broccoli Microgreens: Proven through many different studies, such as this one by John Hopkins Medicine, broccoli microgreens are known to be cancer fighting. They contain sulforaphane which helps the body fight off ravaging diseases such as cancer, as well as fight off inflamation, radiation, and DNA-damaging chemicals.

Kelp Noodles: It is said that kelp noodles offer a wide range of health benefits, partly due to their iodine content. For instance, kelp is sometimes said to improve thyroid health, promote weight loss, reduce inflammation, and enhance heart health. No to mention, they’re a great vegan, gluten-free, and low carb replacement to other pastas.

Hemp Seeds: Hemp seeds are exceptionally high in omega-6 and omega-3 fatty acids. They’ve also been proven to improve the effects of heart disease, skin disorders, PMS, menopause, and digestion. adding these to our recipe instead of just cashews really help up the health factor of this dish.
