- 1 English cucumber, julienned (or your favorite)

- 1 tablespoon coconut, pure cane or raw sugar

- 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes, or to taste
- juice of one lime
Instructions
In a small bowl, mix together tamari, sugar, garlic, red pepper flakes and juice of lime. Set aside. Mix before adding to the salad, we want the sugar to be as dissolved as possible.

Notes
You can sub in 3 – 4 Persian cucumbers in place of the English. Both of these types of cucumbers have less seeds making them ideal for being julienned. Regular cucumber works too if needed.
Add in red bell pepper to the mix, those will add a bit of sweetness and crunch.
In place of using sugar, opt for pure maple syrup instead.
