Ingredients

For the salad

  • 1 cup pomelo/grapefruit peeled, segneted and chopped
  • 1/2 cup raw unsalted cashew nuts raw or roasted
  • 3 cups arugula packed
  • 1/2 cup cucumber cubed

For the sauce

  • 1 tbsp soy sauce/Tamari
  • 1/2 lime/lemon juice only (use less if using lemon)
  • 1 Thai chili pepper or jalapeno or to taste
  • 1 tbsp maple syrup/honey

Instructions

  • Combine all dressing ingredients in a small bowl. Whisk until well combined.
  • Combine salad ingredients in a large bowl, toss to combine and drizzle with Thai-style dressing.

Notes

  • Take-along tip: keep dressing in a separate container and add salad greens on top to avoid a soggy mess.
  • Tamari and soy sauce share a similar color and flavor, and are both a byproduct of fermented soybeans. The only difference, Tamari is made without wheat and doesn’t contain any gluten.
