Cucumber, Avocado, and Strawberry Salsa
Introduction from Ali Maffucci
Who says salsa has to have perfectly cubed ingredients? Not those of us who are Inspiralized! It’s time to transform your salsas by using cucumber half-moons. Whenever I’m invited to a barbecue or sporting event, where I know healthy foods will be scarce, I bring this filling snack. Not only is it fun to eat, but it’s also a conversation starter.
Ingredients
Essential kit
You will need a Spiralizer.
Method
Slice the cucumber in half lengthways. Spiralize using blade C. Pat the cucumber noodles dry to absorb moisture.
In a large bowl, combine the cucumber noodles, strawberries, avocado, coriander, jalapeño, and red onion. In a small bowl, whisk together the honey and lime juice and season with salt and pepper. Pour the dressing over the salsa and toss with the cucumber mixture to combine. Serve with crisps or vegetable crudités.
If you’re preparing this salsa in advance, add the cucumber noodles at the last minute to avoid a build-up of moisture.
