One last summer salad, which also makes a great make-ahead lunch. This kale slaw with Thai-inspired creamy peanut dressing is perfect for back-to-school/work season. Made with shredded vegetables, tofu and topped with avocado, cashews or peanuts and fresh herbs. The dressing is easy to make ahead and pop in a jar for lunch!
This recipe came about from having extra ingredients from making mango fresh rolls, turns out the ingredients make a great salad. After a busy summer, I have been packing lots of lunches and dinners to go. I feel so much better after having homemade food and it is a great way to save money!
