California Roll Cucumber Salad

By: Christina Hitchcock from it is a keeper!
California Roll Cucumber Salad

"My California Roll Cucumber Salad is an amazing take on the traditional California roll. Crunchy, fresh, and it is a great way to use up any extra cucumbers from the garden. In just 10 minutes, you can whip up a light and refreshing side salad. Need more summer salad inspiration? Try my spaghetti squash salad or this creamy cucumber salad. I love cucumber salad because it’s super light and refreshing, quick and easy. Try this low-carb snack next time you’re craving a sushi roll. It captures all the delicious flavors of a California roll (crab/imitation crab, avocado, cucumber, nori, sesame) in a lighter, refreshing, and easier-to-eat salad format. You get the creamy avocado, crisp cucumber, savory crab, salty nori, and nutty sesame seeds all in one bite. The dressing often adds a touch of sweetness and tanginess. Compared to rolling sushi, this salad is incredibly fast to assemble, making it perfect for a quick lunch, light dinner, or potluck contribution. The vibrant green of the cucumber and avocado, the white crab, and the dark flecks of nori and sesame seeds make for an attractive salad."
