    Tools Used In This Recipe:

    Ok, I am not a farm girl, so perhaps I get a little more excited than normal when I actually grow my own food.  I started a Patio Garden this year, and am so pleased with the produce that I have grown as a result of not that much work.  Why is it that produce tastes to much better, picked out of your own garden, without pesticides, herbicides and other delays from transporting the to  market?  Ok, that was rhetorical, no answer needed.  Taking up only 4 square feet, check out my Patio Garden with the Garden Tower here.

    Ingredients
      

    Hot Peanut Dressing

    • ⅓ cup peanut butter
    • 3 tablespoon coconut aminos
    • 4 cloves garlic
    • 2 tablespoon chili sauce
    • 1 knob fresh ginger/or 1 tsp
    • ½ teaspoon red pepper flakes
    • ½ cup water
    • 3 tablespoon sesame oil

    Vegetables

    • 2 cups shredded zucchini
    • 1 cup chopped leeks
    • 1 red pepper, sliced
    • 2 cups mango
    • 2 tomatoes, sliced
    • 5 cups mixed greens
    • 2 tablespoon roasted peanuts for garnish
    • 1 tablespoon parsley for garnish

    Instructions
     

    Hot Peanut Sauce

    • Blend all ingredients in small blender until smooth.

    Vegetables

    • Slice and chop all vegetables as directed above.  Spread lettuce on large platter, and place vegetables across greens.  Drizzle hot peanut dressing. This allows each to use as much dressing as they want.  Or, if you prefer your vegetables with dressing, add all vegetables to bowl, add dressing and then place on the bed of greens.
    • OPTIONAL:  If it isn't summer, and you want your vegetables roasted, place vegetables on large baking sheet lined with silicon or parchment paper. Drizzle with olive oil, salt, pepper and granulated garlic.
      Bake for 30 minutes at 375 degrees, flipping at 15 minutes.
    • When vegetables are cool, add to bowl or platter of greens, and mix well.  Top with peanuts and parsley.
