Spiralized Strawberry Salad is easy warm weather salad! Don’t sweat it if you don’t have a spiralizer, just julienne your zucchini. The real treat of this salad is the dressing. It could also be the fresh, local strawberries or jus the simple, natural sweetness of the ingredients.
I recently made this salad for a cooking class and it’s just so simple but tastes great! You could add some quinoa or a cooked grain you prefer. Enjoy it as is or serve with a grilled protein. Use candied nuts for a little extra crunch!
