Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/4 to 1/2 cup Thai Peanut Sauce
  • 6 wonton wrappers
  • 1/2 tsp neutral flavored oil, such as avocado oil
  • 1 cup cooked chicken, shredded or chopped into bite-sized pieces
  • 4 cups roughly chopped Napa cabbage
  • 4 cups roughly chopped baby spinach
  • 2 chopped green onions
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh mint
  • 1/4 cup chopped cilantro leaves
  • 1/2 chopped red bell pepper
  • 1/2 cup chopped cucumber
  • 1/2 cup shredded carrots
  • 1/2 cup frozen shelled edamame, thawed
  • 3 tbsp chopped peanuts

Instructions

  1. Make the peanut sauce. Set aside.
  2. Cut wonton wrappers into 1/4 inch strips. Toss with avocado oil and spread in an even layer on a baking sheet. (You can also use oil spray if you have it.) Bake at 400°F for 8-10 minutes or until golden. Remove from oven and set aside to cool.
  3. Chop chicken, cabbage, spinach, carrots, bell pepper, cucumber, green onion, mint, cilantro and peanuts. Place it all in a big bowl. Add edamame, wonton chips and dressing, and toss to coat evenly in the dressing.

Notes

  • Don't skip the fresh herbs. They make a huge difference!
  • Start with a little bit of dressing and toss, then add more as needed. It's easy to add more, but you can't take it back out.
  • If you're meal-prepping this salad, leave the wonton chips out and add them just before serving so they don't get soggy.
