Instructions
Wash and peel the sweet potatoes. Using a spiralizer, create spaghetti-like noodles and set them aside in a large bowl.
In a blender or food processor, combine the cherry tomatoes, soaked sun-dried tomatoes (drain them first), red bell pepper, garlic cloves, basil leaves, parsley leaves, apple cider vinegar, olive oil, sea salt, and black pepper.
Blend the mixture until smooth. Taste the marinara sauce and adjust the seasoning if necessary. If you want to add a spicy kick, include the optional red chili flakes.
Pour the prepared marinara sauce over the spiralized sweet potatoes. Gently toss to coat the noodles evenly.
Let the dish sit for 5 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. Sprinkle with optional nutritional yeast for a cheesy flavor if desired.
Serve immediately as a refreshing, raw, and wholesome meal. Enjoy!
