Refreshing Cucumber Salad
Light, hydrating cucumber salad perfect for meal prep + weight loss.
Servings: 1 serving
Ingredients
- 1/2 cucumber thinly sliced
- 1/2 cup frozen cauliflower rice
- 1/2 cup edamame
- 1/2 cup snow peas
- 2 tbsp tamari
- 2 tbsp red quinoa
Instructions
- heat a pan on low-medium heat + add avocado oil spray. once hot, add the frozen cauli rice and cover pan with a lid. continually bring up the lid to break up the frozen chunks. this process should be complete in 5 min or so. if you’re prepping a larger batch, cook the cauliflower in sections so that the pan isn’t too crowded
- reheat pan with more avocado oil spray and add edamame. once cooked throughout, add into the bowl with the cauli rice
- reheat the pan again with avocado oil spray and tamari. add the sugar snap peas and cover with a lid. keep checking up on them and stirring - I keep them cooking awhile because I like mine a little charred. once done, toss into the bowl
- cook the quinoa according to package. save the rest in an air-tight container in the fridge
- finish by chopping the cucumber. mix all ingredients together & serve with tamari, rice, watermelon tuna, pan-fried tofu, soba noodles, etc.
