Skinny Girl Asian Sesame Cucumber - Pepper - Salad. Oh, My!
Pool days > hot kitchens, am I right?
I’ve been on a mission all summer to create “grab‑and‑go” bites that keep me outside in the sunshine, not sweating over a stove. Enter my new obsession: Skinnygirl Asian Sesame Dressing basically a liquid mic‑drop for veggies.
The 60‑Second Mason‑Jar Magic
-
Farm‑stand haul: mini cucumbers + red, yellow & orange peppers.
-
Assembly line:
-
Cukes → drizzle dressing
-
Peppers → drizzle dressing
-
Repeat until the jar’s packed tighter than airport security.
-
-
Fridge time: Flip the jar every couple of hours—right‑side‑up, upside‑down—so every slice gets that sesame spa treatment.
-
Resist the urge to inhale it immediately. (Harder than it sounds.)
Why It Beats a Bag of Chips
-
Crunch factor: 10/10
-
Salty‑sweet sesame kick: wave goodbye to empty‑calorie snacks
-
Zero cook time: more laps in the pool, more weeds pulled, more life lived
Remix Ideas That Slap
-
Banana‑pepper boost: toss ’em right into the jar or sprinkle on top for a spicy zing.
-
Fruit surprise: yes, pineapple and watermelon cubes love a sesame drizzle don’t knock it till you demolish it. Remember, people put pineapple on pizza.
-
Lettuce‑wrap heaven: layer turkey, cheese, or tuna salad, then crown with the cucumber‑pepper mix. You can use any meat or cheese!
-
Leftover rescue: shredded chicken, quinoa bowls, even cold noodles this salad upgrades everything it touches.
Prep once, play all week. Your turn: Have you tried it? Spill your wildest pairings below bonus points if they sound borderline illegal to traditionalists.
