Notes

  • I used thin rice noodles to make this salad. You can use any type of rice noodles for this salad.
  • Instead of searing the shrimp, you can grill or bake them.
  • You can store this salad in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
  • I love sautéing shrimp with a lot of garlic. If you are not a fan of garlic, reduce the amount of garlic used or completely leave it out.
  • For meal prepping, prepare all the components (the noodles, the vegetables and the dressing) and store them in separate containers. When you're ready to eat, cook the shrimp and serve. 
  • You can use crushed almonds or cashews instead of peanuts and almond butter and cashew butter instead of peanut butter.
