Notes

Dressing: I used Panera’s Asian Sesame bottled dressing – yum! I also made my own quick and easy version of an Asian dressing by whirring all these together in the food processor: 2 tablespoons sugar, 1 teaspoon salt, 1/4 cup oil, 3 tablespoons white vinegar, 1/2 cup chunky peanut butter, 1 tablespoon hoisin, 1 tablespoon soy sauce, and about 1/3 cup water.

Nutrition info: Nutrition info includes the homemade peanut dressing.
