  1. Am I missing something about the zucchini? Do you cook it before rolling it? Do you slice it before/after cooking? How long?

    1. Sarah, the directions for that are in the Prep Instructions for the night before your big cooking day. “Using a mandolin or cheese slicer cut zucchini into thin strips, lengthwise. Lay zucchini strips flat on paper towels. Do not overlap. Sprinkle with salt. Let sit for 2 hours. Wrap in layers in cloth towels and place in a plastic bag overnight.” The cashews will also need to be soaked overnight.

    1. Good question Julie. Many of of breakfasts and lunches are simply reheated in the microwave to save you time on serving day. Heat and go works best for those meals. However, some of our dinners will use the slow cooker, stovetop, oven, etc. As a pro member you can filter recipes in menu builder by cooking method.

  4. What is an alternative if you do not have a food processor? Blender? Ninja? I have a tiny kitchen and just have the essentials. By tiny, It is crowded with just one in there.
