INGREDIENTS
-1 large (9 inch) zucchini or 5 small
– salt
– pepper
– olive oil

Tomato Almond Nut Pate
INGREDIENTS
A handful of each of the ingredients below will stuff 1 very large zucchini or 5 small zucchinii.
– soaked dried tomatoes
– red pepper
– carrot
– soaked almonds
– olive oil
– fresh ripe tomato
– lots of fresh basil
Add spices to taste
– salt
– pepper
– coriander
– pinch of cumin
Preparation Directions
Soak almonds overnight. Soak dried tomatoes for a couple hours.
Dice red pepper and carrots. Put all ingredients, except fresh basil, into a Magic Bullet, food processor or blender. Blend until it reaches a consistency you will enjoy eating. I like my pate a little bit chunky like salsa, but it is also great with a smother consistency. Add lots and lots of chopped basil.
Scoop heaping spoonfuls of nut pate on top of cooked zucchini. Serve warm.
This pate is also great as a refreshing and high protein snack with crackers. If your friends are going to remember one thing about that great party you threw it’s going to be the tomato almond pate no matter how you serve it!
