Keeping things on the healthier side today with this colorful and flavorful Chopped Thai Salad. If you make my Mango Cucumber Chopped Salad on the regular like I do, you're going to love this one too!
Let's take a quick poll - just leave your answer in the comments - do we want more healthy recipes on the blog this time of year?? I feel like fall recipes are so often really decadent which I am 1000% okay with, but also I love a good healthy fall meal too. Thoughts? Leave them below.
This Chopped Thai Salad is LOADED with everything you need to keep things light and bright. Tons of veggies and a really light vinaigrette that you'll love. You could add some roasted salmon or chicken or steak if you want extra protein too. But brace yourselves, because you'll want 4 servings of this it's THAT good!! Have at it! xo
