Whole30 Spicy Pork & Pesto Zoodles
Ingredients
- 1 pound of ground pork
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- ½ teaspoon dried red pepper flakes
- 2 tablespoons coconut cream
Pesto
- ½ cup olive oil
- 2 cups fresh basil leaves
- 1 garlic clove
- Juice from 1/2 fresh lemon
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- ¼ cup pine nuts
- 2 tbsp nutritional yeast optional
- 4 medium zucchinis spiralized
Instructions
- SAUTE ground pork in a skillet on the stove with salt, pepper, garlic powder, smoked paprika, and red pepper flakes until cooked through, about 12-15 minutes. When done, do not drain excess fat. Stir in coconut cream.
- WHILE pork is cooking, blend pesto ingredients in a food processor or blender. Add to the cooked pork.
- IN a separate skillet, saute spiralized zucchini until soft and wilted, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a colander and allow excess moisture to drain, about 5 minutes. Then, gently stir in the pork mixture until well-combined.
- SPLIT into four servings and garnish with additional pine nuts, if desired. Store leftovers in the fridge for up to three days.
- Enjoy!
