Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 2 medium zucchinis, spiralized into noodles
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 1 cucumber, diced
  • 1 avocado, diced
Dressing
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh basil leaves, chopped

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Start by spiralizing the zucchinis into noodles. If you don’t have a spiralizer, a vegetable peeler can work too! Once done, pat them dry with a paper towel to remove excess moisture.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the zucchini noodles, halved cherry tomatoes, diced cucumber, and diced avocado.
  3. In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and pepper until well combined.
  4. Pour the dressing over the veggie mixture and gently toss everything together until well coated. Add more salt and pepper if desired.
  5. Sprinkle with chopped fresh basil for that aromatic kick, and give it another gentle toss.
  6. This salad can be served immediately, or chilled in the fridge for 30 minutes for flavors to meld.

Notes

Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. For longer storage, portion in freezer-safe containers (up to one month). Thaw in the refrigerator overnight and serve cold.
