How To Make Vegan Peanut Salsa Summer Salad
- To start with this salad, you create an oven-baked tortilla bowl. Spray with cooking spray and press it into a cast iron skillet.
- Bake it crisp in a hot oven of 440℉/200℃ for 15 minutes. If you are following a keto diet then serve the salad in another type of bowl and skip this step.
- In the meantime, pan-fry your sliced mushrooms in some vegetable oil until soft and brown. Take the tortilla bowl out of the oven and start assembling your salad.
- First, put in your lettuce. I like to divide the bowl into compartments and fill it with sun-dried tomatoes, pan-fried mushrooms, and taugé.
- Then take a section for cashew nuts and tempeh sambal which I bought in an Asian supermarket. Then a couple of tablespoons of peanut salsa and finally sprinkle the salad with fried onions.
- Serve your salad.
