On my mission to find the best raw recipes for myself, I saw this idea for raw “pad thai.” I was so excited to make this, and when I ate it for lunch, I knew I had to let Richard try it when he got home. When I started to describe the ingredients and how I made it, he said, “so you basically made an Asian salad.” Well, yes, my fiance is right. Technically it is just a salad, but doesn’t it sound so fancy to say raw pad thai? And this recipe is so delicious, you won’t even know you’re eating a salad. You’ll think it’s the real thing! And much better for you. This is something you could make a big batch of, save the dressing in a separate container, and make it last all week. That’s what I did! It was my lunch for a good week.

Prep vegetables. Add the zucchini, carrots, pepper, sprouts and cabbage into one or two large bowls. Toss with hands to combine.
Prepare the dressing by processing all dressing ingredients in a mini processor (or use an immersion blender). The dressing may seem a bit thin at first, but it thickens as it sits. If you store it for a couple of days, add a bit of rice vinegar, water or squeeze some lime juice to mix it and thin it out again
Top bowls with edamame, green onion, hemp seeds, and sesame seeds. Pour on dressing. Then top off some raw nuts like peanuts or cashews for added deliciousness.
Note: You can add tofu, mushrooms or any other ingredients that are your fave in pad thai.
