  • ½ cup green onion sliced
  • ½ cup cilantro chopped
  • ½ cup roasted peanuts chopped

Dressing

  • ¼ cup olive oil
  • 3 Tablespoons peanut butter creamy
  • 3 Tablespoons rice vinegar

  • 2 garlic cloves crushed
  • ¼ cup red pepper flakes
  • 1 Tablespoon lime juice

Notes

This salad is very forgiving. You can omit any ingredients you don't like and make adjustments as needed. 
 
Add more or less oil to the dressing until the desired consistency is reached.
 
If meal prepping, it is helpful to store salad ingredients separated and serve dressing on the side.
