I love veggies, like I seriously love them.
Fun fact: I was a vegetarian for almost ten years and never really missed eating meat. I know it sounds kind of crazy looking at the way I eat now, but it’s totally true. Obviously I’ve incorporated a lot of animal protein into my diet since that time, but I still really enjoy eating plant-based meals.
Recipe written in partnership with Feel Good Foods. I highly suggest serving this salad with their Veggie Egg Rolls!
The Orange Tahini Salad Dressing
This dressing is great because it’s super flavorful and really versatile. It works on this Whole30 Asian salad, of course, but also on wraps, as a dipping sauce for my favorite Feel Good Foods egg rolls — basically anything and everything!
So whether you’re vegetarian, pescatarian, or just love a good salad, this Whole30 Crunchy Asian Salad is for you!
