ZUCCHINI CUCUMBER SALAD



Zucchini Cucumber Salad image

This raw zucchini cucumber salad with a lemon basil vinaigrette is a fun and healthy way to enjoy the fresh flavors of summer.

Provided by Liz DellaCroce

Categories     Salad

Time 5m

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 medium zucchini
1 medium cucumber
2 cups arugula
1 cup cherry tomatoes (halved)
1 juice of lemon
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons fresh basil (minced)
1 teaspoon dijon
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper

Steps:

  • In the bottom of a medium bowl, whisk together the lemon basil vinaigrette: lemon juice through pepper.
  • Trim both ends of the zucchini and use a vegetable peeler to create long, wide ribbons. I find that it's easiest to place the zucchini flat on a cutting board and peel the vegetable horizontally.
  • Repeat the same process with a cucumber and place both the zucchini and cucumber ribbons in the bowl on top of the vinaigrette.
  • Add arugula and cherry tomatoes to the bowl and toss well until vegetables are evenly coated with the vinaigrette. Check for seasoning and adjust accordingly.
