Why You'll Love This Healthy Thai Asian Crunch Salad Bowl Recipe?

Healthy Fats - Avocado and almond butter provide nourishing healthy fats to your daily diet, great for hormone production.
Rich in Antioxidants - Bursting with antioxidants that the tomatoes, bell peppers, and cabbage add to the recipe.
Gut Loving Ingredients - Cabbage is great for gut health. It contains insoluble fiber to fuel the good bacteria in your microbiome. Also adds bulk, which promotes regular bowel movements.

This vibrant colorful salad bowl is not only pretty to look at but tastes delicious too.

Consider it simply on its own, or pair it with a protein of choice. I added some grilled chicken breast to this salad, and it becomes Thai crunch chicken salad. If you are vegetarian, try tempeh. Pescatarian friends can try some cooked shrimp.

🥣 Ingredients For a Thai Asian Crunch Salad Recipe

Cabbage Coleslaw Blend - This a must have ingredient for the "crunch" factor to the salad recipe.
Tomatoes - A burst of fresh tomatoes truly makes a salad one to crave.
Walnuts - More "crunch" factor and a delicious flavor from walnuts will have you craving this lunch recipe.
Avocado - This ingredient adds a healthy dose of good for you fats to your salad.
Bell Peppers - Try either yellow or red bell peppers, or even a mixture of both.
Almond Butter - This is the key to turn any Asian Thai salad dressing into an elevated dressing recipe.
Fresh Herbs - A blend of fresh basil, cilantro, and mint adds a freshness to the recipe.
