Vegan Pad Thai Salad

If you’ve been following me for some time, you know that I’m a huge fan of Thai food, just check my Low Carb Pad Thai recipe! This Vegan Pad Thai Salad is no exception to that rule! I absolutely love the flavors and the fact that this is so nutrient dense. Let’s dive into it!

Vegan Pad Thai Salad Breakdown!

This salad truly embodies ‘eating the rainbow’ in the best way! As you can tell from the photos, we incorporated a ton of veggies in here, which I love, because food is MEDICINE after all! Each of the different colors represent different nutrients throughout the Vegan Pad Thai Salad. Let’s break it down!

• Protein: For this salad, the main source of protein is coming from the Chickpeas. You can easily sub in another can to up this a bit, or add in meat/fish if you’d wish!
• Fats: The healthy fats in this salad are coming from the combination of cashews and almond butter in the dressing. It’s a sure fire way to ensure your staying full and on point mentally!
• Veggies!: This salad packs in red and yellow bell peppers, which are both rich in vitamin C. The broccoli packs in Vitamin C and K, while the red onion is high in vitamins A, C and B6!
