Chicken, tofu and peanut salad

21 January 2020 By

A super addictive Chicken, Tofu and Peanut Salad made so tasty with our peanutty satay dressing.

Simply prepare a mixed salad enough for four portions; as you would for a Gado Gado with at least eight of the salad ingredients. Feel inspired to use fried tempeh, red or Chinese cabbage, chives or even cooked rice noodles. Just always make sure you have enough sauce for everyone.
