Ingredients
3–4 mini cucumbers, sliced
6–7 mini bell peppers (orange, red, yellow), sliced
2 tablespoons chili crisp oil (I use Fly By Zing)
¼ cup Ginger Sesame Dressing (I used Braggs)
2 ½ teaspoons Everything But The Bagel Seasoning (add more to taste)
Instructions
Slice the mini cucumbers and bell peppers into thin circles.
In a large bowl, combine the sliced cucumbers, bell peppers, chili crisp oil, ginger sesame dressing, and Everything But The Bagel seasoning. Mix well to ensure the vegetables are evenly coated.
Chill the salad in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld.
Serve chilled. This salad can last up to 4 days in the refrigerator.
Optional: For a high-protein snack, serve the salad over 1 cup of cottage cheese if dairy is included in your diet.
