Instructions

Chop all vegetables and mango into bite-sized chunks and place them in a large mixing bowl.
In a separate bowl, prepare the dressing by whisking together peanut butter, soy sauce, sweet chilli sauce, honey, lime zest, and juice.
Add a splash of water gradually until the dressing reaches a smooth, pourable consistency.
When ready to serve, pour the peanut dressing over the chopped vegetables and fruit, tossing everything well to coat evenly.
Top the salad with fresh mint leaves and salted peanuts for extra crunch and flavor.

Notes

For a vegan version, replace honey with maple syrup or agave nectar.

Use almond or cashew butter for a different nutty flavor.

Substitute mango with pineapple or orange segments if preferred.

Add shredded carrots, red cabbage, or snap peas for more color and crunch.

Store salad and dressing separately; combine just before serving.
