I wish I could take credit for this recipe, but it is actually a “Will Smith” special! He did adapt it from my veggie slaw and I inspired him to add peanut butter to give the dressing a little more “sweetness”, haha. Needless to say, I guess it was a joint effort and the results are AMAZING! With only a few weeks left of summer, I recommend adding this to your list of “little adapts” recipes to try before it’s over! PS – If you love pad thai, this summer salad is for you!

Enjoy!
