Spiralized Vegetable Thai Salad with Peanut Dressing
I can’t get enough of chopped vegetable salads. They’re filling from the dietary fiber in vegetables, they’re crunchy and flavorful, they save well in the refrigerator, and they’re a great way to use up leftover vegetables from the week.
This one bowl Thai salad is made up of spiralized carrots, bell peppers, and cabbage, diced green onions, chopped cilantro, peanuts, and the most delicious peanut dressing. If you want to add more protein to this salad, I suggest tossing in some chopped edamame, quinoa, or some shredded chicken.
The Thai salad is so colorful, the Thai peanut dressing recipe is perfectly balanced with sweetness and umami saltiness. Spiralizing vegetables makes this salad come together quickly and easily and looks much prettier than a traditionally sliced or chopped vegetable salad.
