Zucchini Salad

This delicious Paleo salad comes from the Everyday Paleo Family Cookbook by Sarah Fragoso.  I love the flavor and texture of the raw zucchini in this dish.  The lemon dressing for this salad is very light and tasty, but I love it even more drizzled with a little of my Favorite Salad Dressing.
