Instructions
Make the dressing: In a small microwave-safe bowl, microwave peanut butter for about 20 seconds. This will make it easier to whisk into the dressing. Then, add all other dressing ingredients and whisk together until everything is nicely combined.
Assemble: Assemble all other ingredients in a large salad bowl. Toss with the dressing. You can either serve the salad immediately or refrigerate for 30 minutes to allow the dressing to fully absorb into the veggies.
