Tips
- Wait to toss the salad with the dressing before serving
- Begin with a smaller amount of Sriracha in the dressing if you are sensitive to spice. You can always add spice, but you can't take it away.
- Add other vegetables like purple cabbage or white cabbage for an added crunch.
- If eating this salad as an entree, add Tofu with Peanut Sauce or another favorite tofu recipe.
- Or, choose to add diced avocado.
