This is my Asian Spicy Cucumber Salad recipe, which is cool and refreshing. It is made with asian vinegar, soy sauce, garlic, and chili powder. If you don's like spicy, it is totally fine to skip the chili powder. Asian Spicy Cucumber Salad is a vegan dish, a great addition to lunch/dinner meals you have.
