WW Points (Current System)

0–1 Point per serving (depending on sesame oil amount)


Ingredients

  • 3–4 medium cucumbers, sliced or spiral-cut
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 tbsp low-sodium soy sauce — 0 points
  • 1 tbsp rice vinegar (or white vinegar) — 0 points

  • 1 tsp chili flakes (adjust to taste)
  • 1 tsp sesame seeds — 0–1 point (optional)
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions

  1. Slice cucumbers into thick rounds or spiral cuts (this helps absorb the sauce better).

  3. In a small bowl mix:
    • soy sauce
    • vinegar
    • garlic
    • sweetener
    • chili flakes
    • sesame oil
  4. Pour dressing over cucumbers.
  5. Toss well until evenly coated.
