Hi there, Ameera here!

This week’s Whip It Up Wednesday is our Thai Curry Salad.  I came about this recipe purely by accident.  I can never get enough of Thai Curry with its zingy full-flavored goodness and totally in the mood for a refreshing salad, so I simply combined the two and created this magical Thai Curry Salad dressing, and boy-o-boy am I glad I did.  It is sooo gosh darned tasty!  Mom and I were thrilled eating this deliciousness!

Whip it up Wednesday

As you already know, every Wednesday, we feature a quick and easy recipe that can be “whipped up” in 20 minutes or less.  This recipe can be made in about 10 to 15 minutes, largely dependent upon how fast you can chop veggies, which really helps speed things up in the kitchen.

Sensational Salad!

The flavor is bold, yet refreshing on the salad, it just makes for an awesome combination.  I highly recommend using romaine as it a light lettuce and allows for the Thai Curry Dressing to shine. Using lettuce that has bitter notes or strong flavors could create too much contrasting flavors, which is why the romaine lettuce works so well in this dish.

And don’t get me started on the peanuts! They add this magical, roasted crunchy deliciousness that compliments the bold tangy dressing. Creamy, hearty chickpeas, refreshing cucumbers, crisp purple cabbage, sweet carrots, zesty red onions, and creamy avocados all come together perfectly in this wonderful salad. I just know you are going to love it!

Thai Kitchen Red Curry Paste

We just love Thai Kitchen Red Curry Paste.  It is Whole Food Plant Based compliant and has amazing flavor.  It really sends this dressing over the top and works so perfectly with this flavorful and healthy salad. This salad hits all the high notes for everything a great salad should be: healthy, delicious, boasting no oil, no highly processed ingredients, and no refined sugar.  Give it a try.  It is crazy awesome!

Notes

*Red Curry Paste:  We used Thai Kitchen Red Curry Paste.  It is Whole Food Plant Based Compliant.

*Tamari: We used San J Tamari Soy Sauce Gluten Free, Reduced Sodium. You can substitute the tamari with reduced sodium soy sauce, Braggs Liquid Aminos, or Braggs Coconut Liquid Aminos.

*Miso:  We used Miso Master Organic Mellow White Premium Lite Miso, Certified Gluten Free.  Miso really lends itself to balancing flavors when you don’t use oil.  You can also use chickpea miso for a soy free version.

*Sea Salt:  Please adjust the sea salt based upon your family’s sea salt preferences and/or based upon dietary needs.

*Servings:  2 – 3

*Storage:  Refrigerate and use within 5 days.

*Nutrition Information: Does not include optional add-ins of peanuts.
