Description

A vibrant, crunchy bowl of color packed with fresh veggies and creamy cashew dressing

This Rainbow Chopped Salad is a celebration of color, crunch and nourishing plant power. Every bite is bright and refreshing thanks to rainbow chard, crisp veggies and juicy pops of dried blueberries. The cooked quinoa adds a hearty little boost, while cashew pieces bring a satisfying crunch that ties everything together.

The creamy cashew chickpea dressing blends into a silky, savory drizzle that coats every ingredient beautifully. With chickpeas, maple syrup, lime and cashew milk, it has a balanced mix of sweet, tangy and nutty flavors that make the whole salad feel extra special. It is a wonderful option for lunch, a light dinner or meal prep for the week.
