  • Feel free to add other vegetables or fruits to the salad, such as carrots, cucumber, or grapes, for extra flavor and crunch.
  • For a vegan version, use maple syrup instead of honey in the dressing.
  • If you prefer a thinner dressing, you can add a splash of water or apple cider vinegar to the peanut butter dressing.
  • To make the salad ahead of time, prepare the ingredients and store them separately. Toss the salad just before serving to keep it fresh and crisp.
