Instructions

Step 1

Shred and dice veggies

Step 2

Add those all into a bowl, then lets get the spicy cashew dressing going.

Step 3

In a small food process or blender blend all dressing ingredients

Step 4

Give the dressing a good blend, give it a taste, then add more of what you like. You’ll probably want to adjust acidity by adding more lime juice, or bring out the flavors by adding more salt, or control the spicy level by adding more cashews if you want it less spicy or more chili flakes if you want it more spicy.

Step 5

Top your salad with the dressing, top with white sesame seeds, give it a good toss, then enjoy as is, with some lowcarb chips/crackers, or as a side to your main dish.
