  4. Serve the salad bowls with 2-3 tablespoons of the dressing per salad and if you have any left, save it to use on regular green salads. Sprinkle with chopped peanuts, more cilantro, mint, and green onion and a squeeze of lime if desired. These salads are best served the day they're made at room temperature.
