Instructions

In a large bowl add all of the salad ingredients. I like to layer them all so that they look pretty, but you just add them and give them all a toss – it’s up to you.
To make the dressing, add all of the ingredients to a small mason jar, add the lid, and shake until well combined. If your peanut butter is cold or really thick I would use hot water (the 2 tablespoons called for) instead of cold or room temperature water.
