Raw Asian Noodle Salad

1 zucchini, julienned
1/2 red bell pepper, sliced thinly
a handful of sprouts of some sort (I used the ones typical in Asian stir fries)
1 tsp fresh chopped ginger
1/2 hot chili pepper, minced (or to taste)
1/3 an onion, thinly sliced and marinated in some soy sauce for 5 minutes to soften (in separate bowl)
a handful of fresh cilantro, minced
(optional) a handful of fresh basil, minced
1-2 tbsp sesame oil
3-4 tbsp soy sauce
(optional) a couple of chopped almonds to garnish

Place your julienned zucchini noodles in a bowl. Chop up all your veg and add to noodles. Add the oil and soy sauce and toss with salad. Let this sit for a couple of minutes and it will soften the noodles and veg. Add in the onions. Next top with fresh herbs. Chop a couple of almonds and sprinkle over the top of the salad to give it some crunch.
