Ingredients
- 2 packs (7 ounces each) shirataki noodles
- 3 cups broccoli florets
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 medium garlic cloves
- 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
- 2 tablespoons nutritional yeast
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
- 2 tablespoons parmesan cheese (optional)
Directions
Step 1
Thoroughly rinse the shirataki noodles under cold water for 2-3 minutes to remove their natural smell. Drain and set aside.
Step 2
Bring a pot of water to a boil and blanch the broccoli florets for 3-4 minutes until tender. Drain them and set aside.
Step 3
In a medium-sized pan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.
Step 4
Transfer the cooked broccoli, sautéed garlic, almond milk, nutritional yeast, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper into a blender or food processor. Blend until smooth and creamy. Taste the sauce and adjust seasoning as needed.
Step 5
In the same pan used for the garlic, add the drained shirataki noodles. Cook over medium heat for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, to dry out the noodles slightly and warm them through.
Step 6
Pour the broccoli sauce over the noodles in the pan. Toss well to coat the noodles evenly with the sauce. If desired, add red pepper flakes for some spice.
Step 7
Serve immediately, garnished with grated parmesan cheese (optional) for extra flavor. Enjoy your healthy shirataki noodles with broccoli sauce!
