Zoodle noodle salad with peanut dressing



I just can't get enough of my veggie spiralizer, or of this salad to be honest. I could eat it all day, every day. It's crunchy, chewy, filled with nutrient rich veggies and all the vibrant colours make it a feast for the eyes. 

Veggies...
2 medium zucchini, spiraled or julienned
2 large carrots, spiraled or julienned
1 red bell pepper, sliced into thin strips (you can use yellow or orange as well)
1 - 1 1/2 cups of thinly sliced red cabbage (I find a mandolin works best)
1 cup of frozen edamame, cooked
1 tbsp of toasted sesame seeds

Dressing
1 garlic clove, minced
1 tsp freshly grated ginger 
1/4 cup of all natural peanut butter, or almond butter
2 tbsp of lime juice
2 tbsp of soy sauce or tamari
1 tsp of rice wine vinegar
2 tbsp of water
2 tsp of honey (maple syrup or agave would work as well)
2 tsp of sesame oil
 
Combine all the ingredients for the dressing in a bowl and whisk well.
Combine all your veggies in a bowl and top with dressing. Voila! Now sit back and enjoy. I like to serve it with some teriyaki salmon. The great part about this salad is that it keeps well and you can enjoy it the next day...given there is anything left :)
