Kale & Cabbage Pad Thai Salad
Kale & Cabbage Pad Thai Salad combines thinly sliced green cabbage and curly kale with crisp vegetables like red onion, red bell pepper, and carrot. Chickpeas add a subtle protein boost, all tossed in a creamy peanut butter-based dressing with lime, aminos, maple syrup, toasted sesame oil, sriracha, fresh ginger, and garlic. The result is a flavorful and textured salad inspired by Pad Thai flavors, fresh and tangy with a spicy kick.
