This colorful salad is not only pretty to look at, but it is fresh, healthy and delicious.
Feel free to swap out the Napa cabbage with finely sliced kale, and use any vegetables you have on hand; you could even add mango to this salad and it would be delicious. It is very forgiving and open to substitutions.
This recipe makes a generous amount of dressing – use leftovers to make a cold soba noodle salad. To make this a complete meal, add fried tofu, roasted salmon, or grilled chicken.
Directions
- For the dressing: In blender, combine Farm Boy™ All Natural Creamy Unsalted Peanut Butter, ginger, lime juice, brown sugar, rice wine vinegar, soy sauce, sambal oelek, and hot water. Process until completely smooth.
- For the salad: In large bowl, toss Napa and red cabbages, carrots, bell peppers, and cucumbers. Transfer to a platter and garnish with green onions, mint, cilantro, and chopped Farm Boy™ Salted Kettle Cooked Jumbo Peanuts.
- Drizzle with dressing and serve.
