2 cups of thinly sliced white cabbage
1 cup of thinly sliced mango
1 red bell pepper sliced thin
1/2 cup of fresh mint leaves
1/2 cup of fresh basil leaves
1 cup of crushed peanuts
2 cloves of minced garlic
1 red chili pepper minced
3 tablespoons of lime juice
1 tablespoon of soy sauce
1 tablespoon of honey
1/4 cup of olive oil
Directions
- First things first, let’s start by mixing up the dressing. Grab a deep bowl, throw in the lime juice, soy sauce, honey, and olive oil, then whisk it all together until it’s well combined. Set that delicious mixture aside for now.
- Next up, grab another deep bowl and toss in all your salad ingredients – the cabbage, mango, bell pepper, mint, basil, peanuts, garlic, and chili pepper. Give everything a good mix to make sure it’s evenly distributed.
- Now, it’s time to bring it all together. Pour that magical dressing over the salad and toss it until every piece is coated in that zesty goodness.
- Finally, transfer the salad to a serving plate, and boom – you’re ready to enjoy!
