Marinated Cucumber And Red Bell Pepper Salad Recipe










Ingredients:

2 oz dry cellophane or bean
1 thread noodles
2 cup peeled, seeded, and sliced
1 cucumbers
2 cup thinly sliced red bell
1 peppers (i chopped them into
1 chunks )
1 cup no-oil italian dressing or
1 vinaigrette (i used less
1 than 1c -- about 3/4)
1 tbsp freshly minced basil
1 tbsp freshly miced cilantro
1/8 tsp red hot chili flakes (i made
1 my own from dried chilis)
1 lettuce

Instructions:

Drop the noodles into boiling water until done (length of time depends on
type; read the label). Drain. Toss all ingredients together and marinate
for at least 1 hour. Serve on a bed of lettuce.

Other tips:

I used 3.5 oz of noodles, and less dressing. The chili makes it hot so if
you don't like spicy, it would be fine to leave it out. You may want to
break the noodles a little before cooking (but not too much). I made the
mistake of not breaking them and ended up having to cut them a little in
order to get my ingredients to combine properly.

This salad is even better the next day. I imagine it travels nicely because
it isn't too soupy.
