Ingredients

For the Salads:

  • 1 cup cooked quinoa or brown rice
  • ½ cup chopped carrots
  • ½ cup chopped red bell pepper
  • ½ cup steamed edamame soy beans or peas
  • 4 cups coleslaw mix shredded red or green cabbage
  • 12 ounces cooked and diced chicken
  • ¼ cup Blue Diamond Sriracha almonds
  • Lime wedges and/or fresh cilantro for serving

For the Almond Sesame Dressing:

  • ¼ cup almond butter
  • ¼ cup soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons sesame oil
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice

Instructions

  • Prepare the dressing by combining all of the ingredients in a blender or jar and shaking/mixing until smooth and completely combined. Set aside until ready to serve the salads.
  • To prepare the salads: Divide all of the ingredients on individual plates or in individual bowls. I like to start with a base of coleslaw mix and then add the other toppings. Drizzle with about 2 tablespoons of Almond Sesame Dressing right before serving.
