Crunchy Thai Peanut & Quinoa Salad

Used sun butter, wife loved it

We were out of rice wine vinegar so we substituted Mirin. It was delicious.

Tasty and straight forward, will make again. Best if you can cook the quinoa ahead to it's not piping hot which could wilt the veggies. Will also add edamame for a little extra protein.

This is so good and pairs well with vegetarian peanut soup.

Loved it. Would double the recipe next time.

The sauce portion made a larger quantity than expected, so I doubled the vegetables

Used couscous instead of quinoa. Delicious.

Added tofu

I used a jar of pad Thai sauce for ease and added grilled chicken and mung bean sprouts. Very good!!

Added grilled chicken. Delicious even good as leftovers

Very fresh and flavorful. My husband loves this.

Amazing flavour. So fresh!

Pretty good but would prefer it as a side salad rather than a full meal.

If adding fresh lime juice grate in the zest and if you like the heat add a sliced red chilli.

Finally found a salad I like!

This is absolutely delicious 😋

This was amazing. The sauce was spot on. I used coleslaw mix instead of cabbage. Also added broccoli and celery. Hubby was confused why there was no meat so I added chicken for him. Also put mandarin oranges on top. I could have eaten the whole thing. It was delicious! I didn’t need the chicken but it added some good flavor

hi

Had to thin the sauce a bit. Is quite tasty.

Added chicken. Was addictive.

Lovely salad, very tasty and filling. I struggle to find salads I like but this one really won me over. The sauce is amazing. I couldn’t get snow peas and I added a grated apple which worked well. Paired it with garlic chicken thighs.

I used a bagged coleslaw mix which really sped up prep time, not as beautiful and purple but just as tasty.

Accidentally added double the peanut butter but still tasty!

One of my daughters and I made a batch to take for lunches during the week. It's crunchy, has good flavor, and we will make it again!!

Used our house peanut sauce

So good! I added chicken, broccoli slaw mix and increased sauce amounts to accommodate the increased volume. Will be making more soon as this tastes great warm or cold! Great for meal prep!

So good! I think next time I will add some pepper flakes

Added apples. Yum

Will make this again, so good and stores well

I made this using a chilli & cous cous instead of the quinoa, I also left out the beans. I'm really impressed with this recipe and it was not only tasty, but filled me up.

Very filling think I used to much peanut butter, so was a bit cloying, but that's my fault. If I do again, will add more lime juice to give it some extra zing and maybe some apple for light sweetness.

Need more sauce for day 2!

Definitely my new favorite salad. I put the dressing in a blender and added a bit of water to make it easier to pour and divide into 4 portions for my meal prep :)

This was amazing! I brought this to a pot luck and it was a big hit!

Sooo good. I think I could eat it every day. I made my quinoa in the rice cooker with broth, not water.

Only use pre prepared cabbage and carrots otherwise it takes a lot of bowls

Cilantro 👎 needs more peanuts, quinoa added nothing

Added chicken and doubled the sauce

I added a tofu crumble, it was delicious!

Got mushy.

Loved it! We've made it a few times, once as a salad and subsequently as a stir-fry.

This is my new favorite salad! I used agave instead of maple syrup/honey and it turned out perfect! I also added a splash of Sriracha and a little bit more of the recommended amount for the agave to the dressing. The only thing I would add would be some grilled chicken.

I didn’t have quinoa so I added avocado instead. Delicious! Added a pinch more chilli

When my picky kids enjoyed this! Added Mongolian flavored ground beef on top for protein

Easy recipe and tasted great. Others have recommended doubling the dressing but I found that the recipe provided plenty. Used frozen baby peas because the current price of snap peas is crazy.

We like sauce, so I doubled it. We did not use it all, but I was glad to have extra

It's delicious!

Used canned peas in a pinch.

Definitely double the sauce! I didn't use quite all of it, but I'm glad I had extra! Much easier to make with pre-sliced cabbage and carrots from Trader Joe's. I'll maybe use slightly less rice vinegar or lime juice next time? I also added 2 tsp Sambal Olek fresh chili paste to the sauce to add some heat 🔥

Do double portion of the sauce

I would recommend actually making this and letting it sit for a day, the flavor develops much better after a day of marinating in the sauce. Very good though and deceptively filling.

I used a pre packaged coleslaw mix and cut up extra red cabbage I had to save a little time. I doubled the sauce like everyone suggested and poured half in salad and saved the rest to add as if extra is wanted. Turned out beautifully and delicious! I'll be making this alot. Great for lunches.

Bit stodgy salad. Tasty enough, but lot of salty ingredients.

I doubled the sauce. It was delicious!!! 😋

Delicious. I was out of cilantro (or rather my cilantro went bad before I got around to making this) but I'm sure that would have made it even better. The one thing I did differently was substituting about two thirds of the peanut butter with a PB powder/water mixture to cut down on the calories. Still tastes great.

Double the sauce. It’s the most delicious thing I’ve ever made

Loved this salad. Added chicken. Didn’t have purple cabbage at Aldi so I did a bag of cole slaw mix and that worked perfectly.

Love it! I would personally double the dressing next time.

Lots of chopping, but it's not too time consuming. Great balance of veggies, taste and crunch. Packs well for lunches and I make it regularly.

Add chicken + noodle and its pretty much pad Thai no

Super yum! Doubled the sauce to cover my protein in.

Yum O. Added extra cabbage to dilute the amount of dressing. The dressing is delicious, but I like just a little with every bite.
