•  A few small carrots, julienned
• Sprouts/micro greens of choice

• 3 tablespoons or so extra virgin olive oil (if not using tahini add 1 or 2 extra tablespoons olive oil)
• Himalayan salt, to taste

PREPARATION

1. Amounts here will vary on how many you’re making, use your best judgement on how much you will need. If you can’t find sprouts or micro greens, try using cilantro or fresh basil leaves.
2.  For the kale pesto, place ingredients into food processor and process until desired consistency. Taste for seasoning.
3.  Lay your zucchini flat on a hard surface, layer with the pesto, add sprouts, and vegetables, then starting from the vegetable end, roll and stick with a toothpick in the center. Top with cracked pepper and serve.
