Danielle Minnebo's fresh zucchini and mint salad recipe

Zucchini and Mint Salad Recipe

I have kept the zucchini raw in this recipe because I like the fresh and crunchy texture. If you’re not a fan of raw zucchini you can cook the zucchini ribbons in hot water for 5 seconds only, before making this salad.
