Cherry Tomato Marinara With Zucchini Noodles

Such a long title for such a simple easy dish. This is more raw food and oh so simple and quick to make. I found this in a Delicious Living Magazine. For cool and light for a summers dinner here in Florida.

2 pints cherry tomatoes
2t dried oregano
1t dried rosemary
2T lemon juice
2/3 cup olive oil
1 t salt
2 zucchini, cut into very thin strips (we used our cheese grater and made them into long thin strips)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Place all ingredients except zucchini in blender or food processor. Blend until smooth. (Makes 3 cups.) Place zucchini noodles in a serving bowl; pour marinara over and toss gently.

I did put the tomato marinara into a small mesh strainer so I cold strain off some of the liquid. That worked out perfectly, for if not, it would have been way too liquidy. So strain at least half of the liquid off or it will definitely be to runny.

This dish was perfect and I will most definitely make this one again FOR SURE!!
