This dressing is magic. We make it at least once a week rotating out the veggies in the salad. Lately, I’ve been swapping zoodles for shirataki noodles. I also tend to add a little extra raw garlic and some flaxseed oil for bonus nutritional goodness.
While peanut butter might be more traditional, I avoid legumes and find the almond butter is just as tasty. Use whatever you prefer. If you have a fancy, high speed blender you can add a heaping quarter cup of sprouted almonds instead of pre-made almond butter. We don’t have the space in our tiny Hong Kong kitchen but I’ve been able to find a great raw, organic almond butter here make from sprouted organicalmonds and nothing else.
Play around with the veggies and dressing to make this your own. It would be fantastic with shredded chicken or shrimp. No matter how you adapt it, I have no doubt it will be a family favorite.
