CUCUMBER NOODLES
WITH GARLIC, LEMON, CASHEWS, AND CUMIN

PREP TIME: 10 MINUTES / COOK TIME: 15 MINUTES

If you prefer your veggies raw, you don’t need to cook these noodles even though the recipe calls for it. Cumin and garlic add warm flavors to the dish, while lemon adds a bright acidity that balances those spices. The cashews add a tasty crunch.
