INGREDIENTS

Two, organic cucumbers [English preferred, can substitute 4-5 medium cucumbers instead]

One, organic medium carrot, grated

¼ cup red onion, thinly sliced [can also use one shallot, or ¼ cup yellow onion]

 

FOR THE SAUCE

1 tsp fresh ginger, grated [or one drop Ginger Essential oil]

2 TBSP coconut aminos

1 tsp sesame oil

½ tsp apple cider vinegar

1 TBSP Primal Kitchen No-Soy Sauce [optional]

 

INSTRUCTIONS

  • Prepare the cucumbers (skin and/or de-seed) and thinly slice.
  • Peel the carrot and discard the top layer. Grate the remainder using a fine grater.
  • Chop the onion and place the cucumbers, carrots and onion into a bowl.
  • Separately mix the sauce ingredients together.
  • Pour the sauce over the cucumber salad mix and serve immediately for best results.
  • Top with optional sesame seeds if desired.
  • Will store in the refrigerator just fine for a few days after you initially pour on the sauce.
