Zucchini Salad (spiralized)
Description
Zucchini Salad (spiralized) uses raw zucchini cut into noodles or ribbons as the base, paired with thinly sliced white onions for a mild bite. The dressing combines olive oil and lemon juice, providing a bright and smooth coating. Crumbled feta cheese adds saltiness and creaminess, while fresh parsley and dill bring herbal notes. Tossing the ingredients gently ensures balanced flavor distribution without bruising the delicate zucchini noodles.
The salad is served chilled, allowing the flavors to meld and the zucchini to soften slightly after a 15-minute rest. It works well as a light, refreshing side or a simple vegetarian lunch. If a spiralizer is unavailable, thin zucchini ribbons from a vegetable peeler can substitute, maintaining the salad's texture and appearance.
Ingredients
- 2 pounds zucchini about 3 medium
- ½ cup white onion sliced
- ¼ cup olive oil
- 1 lemon juiced
- ⅓ cup feta cheese crumbled
- 2 tablespoons parsley chopped, fresh
- 1 tablespoon dill chopped, fresh
- salt to taste
- black pepper to taste
Instructions
- Spiralize zucchini using the larger blade on a spiralizer. (see note if you do not have a spiralizer).
- Chop zucchini noodles a couple of times so they are manageable to eat and toss (about 3").
- Slice onion as thinly as possible and add to the zucchini.
- Add remaining ingredients and gently toss.
- Allow to sit for 15 minutes before serving.
Notes
- If you don't have a spiralizer, peel zucchini lengthwise into thin ribbons using a vegetable peeler as an alternative.
