Vegi Noodle Medley
Our Vegi Noodle Medley is a vegan interpretation of a classic loved by all : spaghetti and meatballs. For the noodles, we used a combination of zucchini and sweet peppers as these two vegetables work very well together. For the balls, Cavita fell in love with these kale & quinoa bites: an awesome discovery from our Sobeys vegan section.
