I am currently addicted to this Cucumber and Sesame Noodle Salad and my spiralizer has been working in overdrive to keep up with demand. This salad is perfect for summer, it’s light, refreshing and incredibly fast and easy to make.


There is just something about slurping up the cucumber noodles dripping in sauce that makes this salad so fun to eat.


Cucumber noodles and crunchy slices of snow peas are topped with spring onions and fresh mint and tossed in a delicious ginger and sesame dressing. It doesn’t get much simpler than this!


I used my spiralizer to make the cucumber noodles but if you don’t have one, you can also cut the cucumber into thin strips using a knife.

If you make this recipe let me know in the comment section below, I would love to hear what you think or take a photo and tag me (@everylastbite_) on Instagram, I love seeing your photos!
