Instructions

  1. In a small bowl, whisk together the peanut butter, warm water, soy sauce, honey, lime juice and ginger. Add more water, one teaspoon at a time, if you prefer a thinner sauce. Set sauce aside.
  2. Divide the cabbage between two bowls and top with cucumbers and carrots. Arrange the shrimp on top of the vegetables. Sprinkle with peanuts and mint.
  3. Drizzle the peanut sauce over the top and serve.

Notes

  • If the consistency of the dressing is too thick to your liking and you want a thinner sauce, you may add more water to thin the dressing, one teaspoon at a time.
  • This peanut sauce is a great dressing for all kinds of salads!
  • For a spicy kick to the peanut dressing add some chili flakes
  • You can use honey or a low-calorie sweetener.
  • Swap the shrimp for some cooked, sliced chicken.
  • Add the peanut sauce just before serving.
  • This is a great dish for serving the crowd, just multiply the ingredient amounts. If serving this to a crowd, a great way to present the shrimp salad is to layer the ingredients across a big bowl/dish - looks so good!
