This salad is CRAVE-ABLE and filled with color making it perfect for a healthy meal prep option during the week!
Not going to lie I woke up this morning excited knowing this was my lunch today haha anyone else do this?
What I love about this dish is that it packs protein and colorful veggies with a tasty peanut sauce making this meal anything but boring.
This meal is so versatile that you can choose whatever protein suits you such as chicken, tofu, or edamame beans.
Do yourself a favor and save this one you love it!
