Spiralized Vegetable Noodle Salad Recipe

Preparation of Vegetables

Begin by thoroughly washing all the vegetables. Using a spiralizer, transform the carrots and cucumbers into noodle-like strands. Thinly slice the bell peppers and set aside. If you haven’t done so already, clean the mushrooms and slice them as well.

Sautéing Mushrooms

Heat a small amount of oil in a pan over medium heat. Add the mushrooms and sauté until they are tender and slightly browned. You can add a splash of soy sauce towards the end for extra flavor. Remove from heat and let them cool.

Preparing the Dressing

In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, oil (preferably sesame oil), and any other desired seasonings like ginger, garlic, salt, and pepper. This will be your salad dressing.

Assembling the Salad

In a large mixing bowl, combine the spiralized vegetables, cooled mushrooms, and sliced bell peppers. Pour the dressing over the salad and toss until everything is well coated. Sprinkle sesame seeds and chopped herbs over the top.

Serving

Serve the salad immediately, or let it chill in the fridge for an hour to allow the flavors to meld together. Enjoy as a light and refreshing meal or side dish.
