Description

Simple Food, Simply Delicious

A 30-minute Thai-inspired kale salad with tons of veggies, roasted cashews, and a gingery cashew dressing! A hearty and flavorful plant-based entrée or side dish.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup (100 g) green beans, stems removed, steamed and chopped
  • 1 tsp tamari (or soy sauce if not gluten free)
  • 1/2 tsp sesame oil
  • 1 tsp maple syrup
  • optional: 1 tsp sesame seeds
  • 2 tsp sesame oil (or grape seed oil)
  • 2 shallots, thinly sliced
  • 2 bundles (402 g) lacinato (non curly) kale, torn into bite-size pieces, large stalks removed
  • 3 whole carrots (180 g), chopped or ribboned*
  • 1/2 red bell pepper (60 g), quartered and thinly sliced
  • optional: 1/4 cup (15 g) fresh chopped cilantro or basil
  • 1/3 cup (40 g) roasted salted cashews (or sub peanuts)
  • 1/3 cup (85 g) salted cashew butter (or sub peanut butter)
  • 1 Tbsp (15 ml) tamari (or soy sauce if not gluten free)
  • 2 tsp fresh grated (or very finely minced) ginger
  • 1/4 cup (60 ml) fresh lime juice
  • 1 Tbsp (15 ml) maple syrup
  • 1 Tbsp (15 ml) sesame oil
  • optional: 1 tsp chili garlic sauce or 1/4 tsp red pepper flake

Directions

  • Steam green beans slightly so they still have a bite, either in a steamer basket on the stovetop, or in the microwave. Then transfer to a small mixing bowl and top with tamari, sesame oil, maple syrup, and sesame seeds (optional). Toss to combine, then transfer to refrigerator to chill.
  • Heat a small skillet over medium-low heat. Once hot, add sesame oil and shallot. Sauté for 2-3 minutes, stirring frequently, until softened and slightly golden brown. Remove from heat and set aside.
  • In the meantime, add kale to a large mixing bowl and drizzle with a bit of lime juice and sesame oil and use your hands to massage the kale to soften and remove some of the bitterness. Set aside.
  • Prepare dressing in a small mixing bowl by whisking together all ingredients and thinning with a little hot water until pourable.
  • Add green beans, sautéed shallot, and remaining salad ingredients to kale and toss with dressing. Enjoy immediately.
  • If keeping for later, store dressing separately. Will keep in the refrigerator up to 2 days, though best when fresh.
