Quick and Flavorful.

This dressing is packed with flavor. Sometimes we all need a quick dinner idea, some folks call it a lazy dinner night. Tonight was one of those nights for me. My shortcuts for this recipe were purchasing store-bought coleslaw mix and matchstick carrots. I also used minced garlic (jarred) and Gardein Chicken Tenders. I use this dressing in wraps/burritos or directly on a salad. This also works great as a topping for tofu or tempeh. Bonus…it is so easy to make just using pantry items. Enjoy!

Ingredients:

1/3 Cup Peanut Butter

1/3 Cup Extra Virgin Olive Oil

1/4 Cup Agave Nectar (or Maple Syrup)

2 Tbsp Apple Cider Vinegar

2 Tbsp Soy Sauce

1 Tsp Sesame Oil

1/2 Tsp Crushed Red Pepper Flakes

1 Tbsp Fresh Ginger, grated

1 Tbsp Minced Garlic (or 3 Garlic Cloves, minced)

Directions:

-In a small/medium bowl, combine all ingredients and whisk together.

-Refrigerate and store for two to three days.

-Enjoy!

Served with:
-Wrap/Burrito (tortilla)
-Coleslaw Mix or Shredded Cabbage
-Carrots (Cut into matchsticks or store-bought)
-Broccoli Slaw, optional
-Fried Rice Noodles, optional (I added this in the wrap for an additional crunch), pictured below

Another option is to use this dressing on a salad (pictured below) or as a topping for a tofu/tempeh rice bowl.
