Plus, you can make them in less than 15 minutes. Yaaaaay for simple and quick meals like this one! The combination of raw veggies, crunchy nuts, fresh herbs and chewy noodles always hits the spot. I usually use whatever vegetables I have in the fridge, but here’s a really delicious combo: carrot, cucumber, red cabbage and a creamy peanut butter-lime dressing that’s packed with so much flavor. This salad is fresh, crunchy, chewy and crazy delicious! It’s also vegan, healthy and meal-prep-friendly. Oh yes, and it requires minimal cooking, just soaking/boiling the noodles. What’s not to love?! It’s the perfect wholefoods plant-based meal. And I promise you are going to be making this one on repeat! You can make this vegan salad ahead of time and store it in the fridge for later (but don’t add the peanuts until you eat it so they don’t get soggy). It will stay fresh for a couple of days.

I soak mine in hot water for 7 – 8 minutes. - In the meantime, prep the vegetables and make the peanut butter dressing. - To make the creamy dressing place all the dressing ingredients in a small bowl and whisk until combined. - Once the noodles are done, place cooked noodles, cabbage, carrot, cucumber, chives, peanuts and sesame seeds in a big bowl. Add peanut butter dressing and gently toss to combine. - Season with salt and pepper and enjoy this wholesome bowl! ### Notes *I recommend investing in a julienne peeler if you don’t have one. They are cheap and they get the job done in a matter of minutes. **If your peanuts are raw, place them on a baking sheet and toast in the oven for 8-10 minutes. ### Search ### Recent Post - [Single-Serve Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookie](https://mondaydreams.com/2025/12/04/single-serve-oatmeal-chocolate-chip-cookie/) - [Herbed Quinoa Pea Salad](https://mondaydreams.com/2025/10/21/herbed-quinoa-pea-salad/) - [Greek-Inspired Potato Stew](https://mondaydreams.com/2025/09/30/greek-inspired-potato-stew/) - [No Churn Vegan Chocolate Almond Ice Cream](https://mondaydreams.com/2025/09/23/no-churn-vegan-chocolate-almond-ice-cream/) - [Apple Pecan Cookies](https://mondaydreams.com/2025/08/18/apple-pecan-cookies/) ### Archives Archives Select Month December 2025 October 2025 September 2025 August 2025 June 2025 April 2025 October 2024 September 2024 August 2024 July 2024 June 2024 May 2024 April 2024 March 2024 December 2023 November 2023 October 2023 September 2023 August 2023 July 2023 June 2023 May 2023 April 2023 March 2023 February 2023 January 2023 December 2022 November 2022 October 2022 September 2022 August 2022 July 2022 June 2022 May 2022 April 2022 March 2022 February 2022 January 2022 December 2021 November 2021 October 2021 September 2021 August 2021 July 2021 June 2021 May 2021 April 2021 March 2021 February 2021 January 2021 December 2020 November 2020 October 2020 September 2020 August 2020 June 2020 May 2020 April 2020 January 2017 ### Leave a Reply [Cancel reply](/2022/08/01/easy-noodle-salad-with-peanut-butter-dressing/#respond) You must be [logged in](https://mondaydreams.com/wp-login.php?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fmondaydreams.com%2F2022%2F08%2F01%2Feasy-noodle-salad-with-peanut-butter-dressing%2F) to post a comment.
