Ingredients
  

Thai Salad

  • 2 cups sliced kale
  • 1.5 cups sliced napa cabbage
  • 1.5 cups sliced red cabbage
  • 0.5 cup sliced red bell pepper
  • 0.5 cup shredded carrot
  • 1 mango, sliced
  • 0.25 cup cilantro
  • 8 mint leaves
  • 1 tablespoon sliced green onions 3 grams
  • 0.25 cup roasted peanuts, roughly chopped 40 grams

Peanut Dressing

  • 0.33 cup creamy peanut butter 79 ml
  • 2 tablespoons lime juice 30 ml
  • 3 tablespoons honey or maple syrup, 45 ml
  • 1.5 tablespoons rice wine vinegar 22.5 ml
  • 1.5 tablespoons soy sauce 22.5 ml
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil 5 ml

Instructions
 

Preparation Steps

  • In a large bowl, add thin slices of kale, cabbage, bell pepper, carrot, mango, cilantro, mint, and green onions. Set aside and make the dressing.
  • In a blender, add peanut butter, lime juice, honey, vinegar, soy sauce, sesame oil, sriracha, ginger, garlic, and water. Puree until smooth and combined, about 1 minute. Alternatively, whisk the ingredients together in a medium-sized bowl.
  • Gradually add enough dressing to coat the salad, and toss to combine. Drizzle with more if there's any remaining. Top with freshly cracked black pepper and chopped peanuts.

Notes

Serving size is 1 ½ cups of salad. Use coconut aminos or gluten-free tamari instead of soy sauce for a gluten-free version. Start with 1 tablespoon of honey for less sweet dressing, adding more to taste. Refrigerate salad ingredients for up to 3 days and peanut dressing for up to 5 days, adding dressing just before serving.
