Summer Thai Salad

Looking to eat more summer veggies while they are in season?

This salad is for you.

Zucchini, carrots, cucumbers, tomatoes, peppers, cabbage and cilantro meld perfectly with Jalapeno Lime dressing and roasted peanuts for this Thai-inspired summer salad.

Use any or all of the above named vegetables for your own unique summer salad.

The best way to prepare the vegetables for this salad is with either a spiralizer - like you’d use to make zoodles - or the julienne feature on a mandoline. Of course, you can chop by hand or make thin strips with a potato peeler as well.

Be liberal with the cilantro and Jalapeno Lime dressing - it’s what really brings the salad together and makes it special.

The undressed salad can be made ahead of time and stored in the fridge for a couple days.

Once you add the dressing, the zucchini and cucumber may start to soften. If you want to make it ahead of time, either add the dressing and peanuts right before serving, or omit the zucchini and cucumber, just using carrots, cabbage, peppers and cilantro.

Enjoy!
