Fresh Spring Roll Salad with Peanut Dressing
A cool and crunchy salad that captures all the bright flavors of a fresh spring roll in a bowl.
recipesbynani.comThis salad is one of my favorite ways to enjoy spring roll flavors without having to wrap anything by hand. It is light, refreshing, and full of colorful textures that make every bite feel like a treat.
I love serving this on warmer days when I want something crisp but satisfying. If you have extra time, try to slice your vegetables into very thin matchsticks so you get a little bit of everything in every forkful.
