Crunchy Turkey Salad with Peanut Dressing

This vibrant crunchy turkey salad with peanut dressing is a fantastic way to breathe new life into leftover poultry. Combining the nutty richness of peanut butter with the sharp heat of sriracha and rice vinegar, the dressing provides a bold contrast to the fresh, aromatic herbs. It is a light and nutritious dish that relies on texture, featuring crisp cabbage and delicate ribbons of carrot to create a satisfying crunch in every mouthful.

As a dairy-free recipe, it is an excellent choice for those seeking a healthy yet filling meal that doesn't feel restrictive. The generous use of fresh mint and coriander adds a fragrant, zesty lift that makes this salad feel wonderfully bright and summery. Serve it as a quick weekday lunch or a simple evening meal with an extra squeeze of lime to balance the savoury flavours.
