This is a really unique salad! Packed with all sorts of good veggies, it's the sauce made of mint, lime juice, honey and chile-garlic sauce that makes this stand out. It's both refreshing and comforting at the same time. The almonds adds a bit of crunch which is nice for a dynamic texture.
Notice all the beautiful colors? It's very impressive because of both the color and the flavors. This was a great find from Vegetarian Times.
