Receta Thai-riffic Noodle Chicken Salad with Peanut Dressing
This colorful main course salad is elegant enough to serve for company but my husband and I love it so much, we sometimes have it for dinner several times in the same week! Once you try it you’ll know why we’re a little obsessed with this Asian style noodle salad. It’s packed with flavor, chock full of nutritious skinny ingredients, and extremely filling. One Thai-riffic salad has 371 calories and 14 grams of fat and 10 Weight Watchers POINTS PLUS. The fat content is mostly coming form the peanut butter, which is a healthy fat. Just serve with a glass of wine or ice tea and that’s all you’ll need to be amazingly satisfied.
