Tips
I had to add a bit of water to the food processor to get the pesto to combine.
Directions
Soak Shirataki noodles in cold water.
Slice Brussels sprouts in half and submerge in salted, boiling water for 3 minutes. Drain and allow to cool slightly.
Combine sprouts, lemon juice, garlic, olive oil, almonds, basil, salt and pepper in food processor and puree.
Boil Shirataki noodles for 3-5 minutes, drain. Put back into the pot and add pesto (1 bag of shirataki noodles corresponds to roughly 1/4 of the pesto). Add halved cherry tomatoes, heat on low until warmed through. Place in bowl and sprinkle parmesan on top. Enjoy!
