Thai Chickpea Salad with Peanut Dressing

Step 1

Let's get chopping! Finely chopped veggies are key for getting a little bit of everything in one bite. Finely chop or shred lettuce. Shred or thinly slice cabbage. For pre-shredded carrots, I like to chop these up a bit to spread them more evenly in the salad. Finely dice bell pepper and jalapeño, removing seeds and stems. Chop cilantro and green onion via preferred method. (I like to use kitchen scissors) Combine veggies and set aside.

Step 2

For the dressing, add peanut butter, soy sauce, orange juice, syrup/honey, rice vinegar, sesame oil, ginger, garlic, cayenne and water to to a small bowl and whisk well.

Step 3

Drizzle dressing over the salad and toss to combine. Top with chopped nuts and dive in!
