Recipe Tips
If you don't have a spiralizer, use a vegetable peeler to make long ribbons out of your vegetables.
Make this recipe right before serving; the zucchini will release liquid if it is left to sit.
Instructions for Thai Noodle Salad
- Using a spiralizer, cut zucchini into long noodles and place in a large bowl.
- Add carrot sticks, red pepper slices and green onions to zucchini and gently combine.
- For dressing, in a small bowl, whisk basil together with ginger, garlic, rice vinegar, lime juice and honey. Slowly stream in oil while continuously whisking, and stir in salt and pepper.
