Raw Zucchini Salad

Ingredients:

• * 2 zucchini
• * 2 yellow squash
• * 3 garlic clove (grated or finely chopped)
• * 3 tbsp lemon juice
• * 1/2 tsp dijon mustard
• * 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
• * 1/4 cup sliced almond
• * sea salt and pepper to taste

Instructions:

1. Wash and chop your zucchini and squash into half-moon shapes (or whatever shape you like).
2. Toss the chopped zucchini and squash in a colander. Sprinkle 1 tsp of salt and let it stand for 10-15 to “sweat” out some of the water in your veggies.
3. In a small bowl, whisk garlic lemon juice, dijon mustard and oil to create your dressing.
4. Use a paper towel or clean kitchen towel to pull the moisture off the veggies.
5. Toss the veggies with the dressing. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
6. Garnish with your sliced almonds.
