Instruktioner

Add the two pitted dates for the peanut sauce to a glass jar or bowl and cover in boiling water. Let sit for 10-15 minutes. Chop up your veggies and set aside.

Add all of the peanut sauce ingredients to a blender or food processor (including the soaked dates) and blend on high speed until completely smooth. If needed, add additional warm water until the sauce is thinned out but still thick like a peanut sauce.

Add all of the chopped veggies, cilantro, peanuts, and dates to a large mixing bowl and cover with the peanut sauce. Mix well to combine.

Enjoy immediately or store in airtight containers in the fridge for up to 4 days. Serve chilled.
