A refreshing salad with a hint of tang! This Asian cucumber salad is great for get-togethers, work potlucks, or as a small salad with dinner or lunch.
Now, this recipe only makes one serving, but cooking for two? Just double the ingredients! I used a gluten free soy sauce for the dressing, but as an alternative, you may use coconut aminos. You may also add in some extra ingredients, like avocado and onions but be careful because that will bring the carb count higher!
