Fresh Vegetable Quinoa Salad with Peanut Sauce Dressing

October 6, 2014 by Marie 1 Comment

Fresh Vegetable Quinoa Salad with Peanut Sauce Dressing

This Fresh Vegetable Quinoa Salad rocked my world last week!  I think I ate this for lunch 3 days in a row. If I hadn’t have run out of dressing, I probably would have eaten it the rest of the week as well.  The peanut sauce dressing is light, and refreshing, and has a bit of a bite. I love the ginger, cilantro, and citrus notes, and adding fresh veggies always get me excited about anything I’m making. Try this salad, without chicken, as a side, or have it for the main event by adding cooked diced chicken breast before you toss it. Make this. Eat it.  I dare you to tell me you don’t like it. I dare you.

Fresh Vegetable Salad

1 c.  red cabbage (coarsely chopped)

1 c. broccoli slaw

1 c. shredded carrots

3/4 c. cooked quinoa

3/4 c. cashew halves

1/4 c. finely diced red pepper

1/4 c. chopped cilantro

2 cooked chicken breast, diced (optional)

 

Peanut Sauce Dressing:

Juice of 1 orange

Juice of 1/2 lime

3 Tbs. soy sauce

1/8 tsp. garlic powder

2 Tbs. honey

12 Tbs. natural peanut butter

4 tsp. ginger, grated

Place all veggies and chicken in a large serving bowl. Drizzle Peanut Sauce Dressing over the top, and toss until lightly coated. Serve immediately.
