Recipe: Raw Zucchini and Chicken Salad (Paleo/ Primal)

Salad:

4 large zucchinis, cut thin or spiralized

1 T sea salt

1 cooked chicken breast, diced into large pieces

1/4 cup parsley, diced

2 T fresh basil, diced

1/4 cup sunflower seeds

4 green onions, tops only

6-10 cherry tomatoes, cut in half

2 stalks celery, sliced 

Dressing:

1/4 cup apple cider vinegar

1 T coconut aminos

1 T tamari or Nama Shoyu (or soy sauce)

2 t. lemon juice

2-4 T olive oil (to taste)

1/2 t. fresh cracked black pepper (or to taste)

First salt the zucchini and set aside.  Let sit while you prepare everything else.

Put other salad ingredients into a large bowl.

Put all the dressing ingredients except the olive oil into a small bowl.  While whisking by hand, add the olive oil.

Rinse the zucchini.  Add it to the other salad ingredients.  Add half the dressing and see if you like that amount of dressing.  Add more as desired (or use elsewhere another day!).

Enjoy.
