Introduction

This raw vegan spaghetti with creamy sweet pepper sauce is a perfect quick and easy dinner that feels indulgent yet light. Combining fresh veggies and a smooth, flavorful sauce, it’s both satisfying and nutritious.

A white bowl holds a spiral of pale yellow and white vegetable noodles at the bottom, topped with a smooth, creamy orange sauce sprinkled with red spices mainly on one side. On the left, a bunch of fresh green basil leaves sit on the noodles near the sauce. Two large textured green kale leaves lean on the right side of the bowl. Small seeds are sprinkled over a light green dollop of dip near the top center. A silver fork rests on the right edge of the bowl, partially covered by the sauce. A woman's hand holds the left side of the bowl, and the background is a white marbled texture. Photo taken with an iphone --ar 4:5 --v 7

Ingredients

1 cucumber or zucchini
2 sweet peppers
1 tomato
½ cup cashews
2 tbsp hempseeds
2 tbsp raisins
½ onion
1 clove garlic
1 tbsp curry powder

Instructions

Step 1: Use a spiralizer to turn the cucumber or zucchini into noodle-like strands and set aside.
Step 2: Place the sweet peppers, tomato, cashews, hempseeds, raisins, onion, garlic, and curry powder into a blender. Blend until the mixture forms a smooth, creamy sauce that is slightly warm.
Step 3: Pour the sauce over the spiralized noodles and mix gently to coat evenly.
Step 4: Optionally, top with sliced avocado, fresh herbs, or extra sweet pepper slices for added texture and flavor.
Step 5: Serve immediately and enjoy!

Tips & Variations

Soak the cashews for at least 2 hours beforehand to make blending easier and the sauce creamier.
Swap zucchini for cucumber if you prefer a milder noodle or want extra crunch.
Add a squeeze of lemon or lime juice to brighten the sauce.
For a spicier kick, include a small piece of fresh chili or a pinch of cayenne pepper.

Storage

Store any leftover sauce in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Keep the spiralized noodles separate and add the sauce just before serving to maintain freshness. Reheating is not recommended, as this is a raw recipe best enjoyed fresh.
