  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 small yellow pepper, seeded and chopped

Method

  • Place the zucchini ribbons into a colander, add salt and let it drain for 15 minutes.
  • In a large pot put some water and, using a steam basket, steam the kale for 5 minutes. Take it out and let it cool. Once cooled, chop it into small pieces.
  • Heat olive oil in a large pan. Add onions and cook until they are fragrant, 4 to 5 minutes. Add the yellow pepper, garlic and continue to cook for 2 minutes.
  • Add the zucchinis, mix and cook for 6-7 minutes. As they cook, they will soften and will start looking like noodles. Place them in a mixing bowl.
  • Add the chopped kale.
  • To make the dressing: Mix vegenaise and red wine vinegar in a bowl. Season it black pepper.
  • Drizzle the zucchini and kale mixture with the dressing. Add a handful of (or more) walnuts in and mix.
