Servings: persons

3 Tablespoons Raw Apple Cider Vinegar
2 Tablespoons Fresh Lime Juice
4 teaspoons Fresh Lime Zest, Firmly Packed
1/2 teaspoons Salt
Pinch Of Pepper
2 Tablespoons Light Agave (Honey For Paleo Version)
⅔ cups Roughly Chopped Fresh Strawberries, Loosely Packed (90g)
1 Tablespoon Red Onion, Chopped
⅓ cups Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1/2 Tablespoons Chia Seeds
2 Large Cucumbers
4 cups Spinach, Firmly Packed
1-⅓ cup Fresh Strawberries, Sliced
3/4 cups Red Onion, Thinly Sliced
2 Tablespoons Fresh Mint, Minced
1/2 cups Cilantro, Finely Chopped

1
In a small food processor (mine is 3 cups), combine apple cider vinegar, fresh lime juice, lime zest, salt, pepper, agave, strawberries and red onion until smooth, and the berries and onion are broken down.
2
With the food processor running, stream in the olive oil until well combined, the dressing lightens in color, and is thick and creamy.
3
Transfer to a bowl and stir in chia seeds.
4
Using the 3mm blade on your spiralizer, spiralize cucumbers until they turn into thin noodles.
5
Gently squeeze out a little bit of the excess moisture, and divide noodles between bowls.
6
Divide spinach, strawberries, sliced red onion, mint and cilantro between the bowls, followed by salad dressing.
7
(You should have ended up with 1 cup of dressing, so 1/4 cup of dressing per salad.)
8
Toss until evenly coated and devour.
9
Note: This dressing gets even better if you make it ahead and let it sit in the refrigerator overnight.
