3 cloves garlic
3/4 cup brazil nuts
1/3 cup nutritional yeast
1 tsp sea salt
3/4 tsp Italian seasoning
1/2 tsp red pepper
4 Chicken Sausages, cooked
2 very large zucchini, julienned or spiralized
2-3 cups sliced baby bella mushrooms

In a small food processor or high-speed blender, combine olive oil, garlic, brazil nuts, nutritional yeast, sea salt, Italian seasoning and red pepper. Pulse until the consistency of pesto sauce.

Transfer sauce to a large pot.  Add spiralized zucchini “noodles," mushrooms and tomatoes.
