Zucchini Pasta with Almond Basil Pesto

Makes 2 to 4 servings

Raw cuisine isn't always my favorite (my digestion has seen better days), but I've always been impressed with veggie pasta. It's a sponge for flavor and the perfect canvas for sauce. I took a spin on the classic basil pesto by replacing pine nuts with almonds. The result is a simple, fast, refreshing lunch.

Method

1. Spiralize or peel the zucchini into noodle-like ribbons. Pat them with paper towels to remove excess liquid.

2. Place the almonds, basil, oil, pecorino, garlic, and salt into a food processor and blend until the pesto is the desired consistency (I like a chunky texture). Gently fold the pesto into the zucchini noodles and toss with the cherry tomatoes.

Here's What You Need:

  • 2 zucchini
  • ¼ cup raw almonds
  • 2 large handfuls fresh basil
  • ¼ cup extra-virgin olive oil
  • ¼ cup grated pecorino cheese
  • 2 garlic cloves, peeled
  • 2 teaspoons pink salt
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved

What a beautiful book. It is filled with beautiful images, colors, photos, recipes, and Kathryn's motivating thoughts.

Whether you are already a yoga fan or just thinking about it, this book has something for everyone — even the un-yoga reader can find inspiration within its pages.

Kathryn's message is to be who you really are inside and out, to live a healthier, happier, and more relaxed life. You may not agree with all of her philosophies but there is no denying that the underlying message I listed above can apply to many people at any age.

I liked this book so much that I purchased a second copy and had it sent to my daughter. It wasn't a gift for a special occasion; I just wanted to share this lovely book with my darling girl.

Get yourself a copy and read and apply the inspirational parts that fit with who you are and then enjoy a healthier, happier, more relaxed life.

Reviewed in the United States on March 30, 2016

A masterful book that is a jewel box of goodies and a perfect follow up from her last - Big Book of Yoga. Kathryn's gift for words and her passion for life come through so vibrantly you can't help but be drawn in and say "YES! I'm down for that!". Marrying real issues around body image, foodie fun, yoga poses and the importance of finding your tribe and moreover yourself, is clearly written from the tapestry of Budig's own life experience. She keeps its real without losing the power of joy that is a necessary companion on one's journey. If you're interested in getting into the practice that is your life - AIM TRUE does not disappoint. This is a great book from which to read, reference and repeat to remind us what to appreciate, what to let go of and what to keep digging into. Thank you for the authenticity and the permission to find our own quiver, bow and target.

4.0 out of 5 stars Inspiring and motivating to make small changes in your life!
Reviewed in the United States on June 29, 2016

Aim True is a spirituality, yoga, foodie, life lover book all wrapped up into one. It features beautiful commentaries and fun photos featuring Kathryn herself in four major section:

¥ Love Your Body
¥ Eat Without Fear
¥ Nourish Your Spirit
¥ Discover True Balance.

I personally started practice yoga (physical asana) approximately 2 years ago. Recently, I have become more interested in the larger picture, versus just the physical practice. I have followed Kathryn online and was elated to learn she published a new book. I purchased this book as an introduction to learn more of the whole picture.

Kathryn's book provides a larger picture, in a simple way. It does not go into complicated yoga sutras or yogic path. It provides a simple, action-based plan that anyone, new to yoga or not, can follow.

In reading this book, I jumped right into the Discover True Balance section. The section on Navigating Life's Obstacles is very relatable to me, and I appreciate her insights to being true to yourself, finding your tribe and stepping out of your comfort zone.

The second area I focused on what Love Your Body, specifically setting up a home practice. I have primarily been focused on a Power Vinyasa style for the past two years and Kathryn's book came with six awesome sequences to try. The book includes breathing instruction as well as both English and Sanskrit names for poses. This was a great way to switch up my usual studio practice and take some time to work at home. 

Finally, Kathryn's outlook on food is refreshing! She does not advocate for any special diets or food elimination. She recommends enjoying the food preparation process and savoring what you consume. While reading this book I followed along with the 5-day purification process and really enjoyed how my body felt afterwards. Her book contains a plethora of easy to produce, delicious recipes.

Overall, I appreciate that it does not require you to read cover to cover and can be a reference guide at any moment. It is certainly a book I will look back into, time and time again.

The only downside to this book is that I wish some sections went into greater detail - maybe someday, Kathryn will be able to publish her own cookbook instead of just having it be a small component of a larger book.

I bought this book because I wanted something nourishing, stimulating, educational and not draining or a chore to read. This book is exactly that. Even the feel of the pages is enjoyable! It's beautifully photographed and so easy to pick up and just open wherever and start reading. Kathryn Budig is such a joy, such a breath of fresh air. I love how she just LOVES her natural body. You just don't see that anywhere. It's so inspiring.
The recipes are great (baked avocado with a cracked egg? yes please.)
I will say there isnt anything revolutionary or particularly new, I'm an experienced yoga lover and so I know the poses, but her take on them only adds more to my practice. it reads more like a conversation and a peek into her world. Ideas, poses, advice: it's all simple and easy to follow.
I totally recommend this book, it would make a great gift as well b/c its so pretty!

Kathyrn is an awesome teacher and I preordered this immediately when I heard she was writing a book. Her classes at Yogaglo are my favorites and have really helped my practice move forward. This book, I have no doubt will do the same. The book is split into four sections:

1. Love your body
2. Eat Without Fear
3. Nourish your Spirit
4. Discover True Balance

There are six yoga sequences, a 5 day purification process, 85 recipes, an introduction to meditation and homeopathic self-care/beauty recipes as well. Lots of great advice and great reading in this lifestyle guide. The book is beautifully photographed with a simple and easy layout to follow. I cannot wait to try the Lazy Day Pasta with the Peppermint Patties for dessert. Pick this up - it's a wonderful way to advance your practice and expand your palate!

I bought this book after seeing Kathryn speak at MindBodyGreen. The book read like sitting down for a chat with my closest girl-friend. It is the first time ever I have bothered to do the exercises suggested by a book and I found them eye opening. Having taught Yoga and fallen ill and been unable to continue in what I love, this book has reminded me of all the things I love about my life and yoga. It has inspired me to get to a place where I am happy doing yoga, following my beliefs and living my truth.

Thank you Kathryn, a true inspiration to an nearly 50 something yoga gal.
