It’s so easy to just grab something quick or order take out. Try this quick and easy healthy clean Crunchy Cashew Thai Salad. This dish will surprise your whole family. Make a double batch and freeze for another meal.

I made this last week for my family and they just loved it. I added grilled chicken to the recipe to make it a main dish. You can also leave out the chicken and serve it as a side. You can also sub in fish, tofu or steak instead of chicken. Really your options are limitless make this dish your own.

Red Cabbage, Onions, Red Peppers, Garlic

Add as much or as little dressing as you’d like to the quinoa. I always start out with a little bit of dressing and usually add more to suit my taste preferences. Alternatively you can save the dressing for later and add when you are ready to eat; however the flavors of the dressing usually soak into the salad so I love adding it to the quinoa first.
Next fold in red pepper, onion, cabbage, carrots, and cilantro into the quinoa. Garnish with cashews and green onions. Serve chilled or at room temperature with lime wedges if desired.

Enjoy!!
