My inspiration for this was raw mac n cheese. I guess the macaroni noodle part is hard to do with zucchini BUT this was super nom-alicious (yes, i just invented that word) nonetheless. Plus, the sauce was killer. Enjoy!

How to Prepare Zucchini Pasta With Creamy Cheese Sauce [Vegan]

To make the pasta: slice all the zukes on your mandoline or spiral slicer. Set in big bowl.
To make the sauce: blend all the ingredients until smooth. See if you like it and if not, adjust accordingly. You want it to be pretty thick because it thins out once you add it to the noodles.
Mix it in with the noodles and tomatoes and let them sit for 10 minutes or so. The flavor and texture will improve. Then...you know what to do.

This tasted so far from cheese – even vegan cheese – I\’m not even sure why "cheese sauce" is part of the title. And since there was no specific type of miso called for, I used my dark miso, and essentially came out with a brown, vinegar-flavored dressing on zucchini. Disappointed.
