This is really good. I used one container of shredded rotisserie chicken from Aldi – 2 bags of their asian salad kit (without any of the dressing or other items in the bag). A couple of things I think would be interesting to try next time: either adding chopped hard boiled eggs or maybe adding more rice vinegar for a little more tanginess. It is really good and filling though. I’m eating it for breakfast because it just sounded cool and refreshing on a muggy day.

A quick and easy dish! I subbed out the cottage cheese with DF Greek yogurt and used PB2 since I was out of regular PB. A new family favorite

Love it! Thanks so much for commenting
Is very tasty. I used almond butter instead of peanut and did not use peanuts at all. I also used a little honey and maple syrup. And shredded rotisserie chicken. Delish!

I am amazed at this dressing- I could drink it with a straw! I used PB2 powder to cut back some calories and honey instead of monkfruit. I am shocked at how good it is, and it is loaded with protein!

Dressing is INSANE good! I skipped the monk fruit because I didn’t have on hand and SO GOOOD! I will make many times over. Super easy and clean! Thank you!
