It also makes a great on-the-go lunch or snack for hot summer days. I’m adding cooked shrimp to this to bulk it up a little and make it a full meal. I tend to start making lots of this Japanese cucumber salad when the cucumbers from my garden start piling up. If you have other veggies kicking around, go ahead and toss them in the mix too! You don’t have to wait for harvest season either. Make this scrumptious dish anytime you want a light meal that will fill you up without slowing you down!
