Zucchini Noodles with vegan Pesto

Last week my father turned 70 and on this special occasion my parents invited us (myself, sister and brother) to a wellness-weekend across the border in Germany. 

We were all pretty exited - my first time in a four-star-wellness-hotel! Defently not bad!

On Saturday we left all together around lunchtime and after an hour and 45 min we arrived at the hotel. After checking and entering the rooms we met in the Lounge for small snack and drink. (The snack they ordered...... - just meat and cheese -  no comment). It didn't bother for me as I had my sandwich with me and ate it right after entering my room. Afterward each of us enjoyed the wellness till dinner.

As all the special personal massages were overbooked we only enjoyed what ever one of us wanted. 
First I went into the Bio-Sauna - relaxing, drinking water and then to the steam-bath. 

It did so good. I really relaxed. Unfortunatly there were no time left to use the herbal chamber,.. :(

The dinner was exellent and I got a Vegan Meal (Falafel with raw marinated spinach topped with crunchy honey-nuts and hemp-seed-joghurt) 

I really went back to work relaxed. I really needed such a kind of weekend!

For my Monday's lunchbox I prepared a light and fresh dish to extend the wellness-feeling ;)

Simple, easy and so good with selfdried cherry tomatoes!

Enjoy! And hopefully you feel "wellnessed" after this dish.....
