Delicious Thai Salad with Peanut Dressing

Delicious Thai Salad with Peanut Dressing

This salad tastes as good as it looks. I would pay money to get this at a restaurant. It’s filling and has a delicious peanut dressing I would lick my fingers for.

My favorite part of making hardy salads, is making a big enough batch to meal prep for a few days. This salad is perfect for that. The leftovers were enough for 3 days of lunch.

This is also vegetarian friendly. However, if you want to make this salad more filling and you are not a vegetarian you can add any protein you like. Some examples are tofu, shrimp or chicken. I used a rotisserie chicken from the market to make it quick and easy.
