Hungarian-Inspired Zucchini Cucumber Salad

Hungarian-Inspired Zucchini Cucumber Salad

Having never made Hungarian food before, I thought my best intro would be to try a variation on one of their most favourite sides: the cucumber salad. I’ve upped the nutrition with the integration of zucchini and removed the traditional cream for a plant-based variation on this beautiful crisp, crunchy and refreshing salad
