Notes
- I used thin rice noodles to make this salad. You can use any type of rice noodles for this salad.
- Instead of searing the shrimp, you can grill or bake them.
- You can store this salad in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
- I love sautéing shrimp with a lot of garlic. If you are not a fan of garlic, reduce the amount of garlic used or completely leave it out.
- For meal prepping, prepare all the components (the noodles, the vegetables and the dressing) and store them in separate containers. When you're ready to eat, cook the shrimp and serve.
- You can use crushed almonds or cashews instead of peanuts and almond butter and cashew butter instead of peanut butter.
