Ingredients

For the Salad:

8 Ounces Pad Thai Noodles
1 Pound Shrimp peeled and deveined
1 Cup Purple Cabbage finely shredded
3 Cups Romaine Lettuce chopped; this is about one head
¾ Cup Shredded Carrots this is approximately 2-3 carrots
¼ Cup Cilantro chopped
1 Bunch Green Onions finely chopped
1 Lime juiced
Sesame Seeds to garnish

For the Dressing:

½ Cup Creamy Peanut Butter
¼ Cup Coconut Aminos or substitute 2 tablespoons of traditional soy sauce
2 Tablespoons Rice Vinegar
2 Tablespoons Ginger freshly grated
3 Tablespoons Water plus more, if needed.

Instructions

To make this salad, start by preparing your pad thai noodles according to the package directions. Once they're done, drain the water from them and set them aside.
Next, boil your shrimp and allow them to cook until they're pink and fully cooked through. This should take approximately 4 minutes.
Once the shrimp are done, set them aside and prepare the dressing by mixing the dressing ingredients together, in a small bowl, until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
Then, set the dressing aside while you prepare the salad by chopping all of the veggies, and adding them to a large bowl.
Pour your dressing on top, then toss to fully combine.
Serve immediately and enjoy! Store any leftovers in an airtight container, in the fridge, for up to two days.
