This Sesame Noodle Salad with Nutty Dressing is a flavor-packed twist on a classic cold noodle dish. Tossed with crisp veggies and coated in a creamy, savory-sweet dressing made with natural peanut butter, Manuka Honey, Organic Sesame Oil, and a touch of sriracha, it’s the perfect balance of tangy, nutty, and satisfying. Finished with a sprinkle of toasted Organic Sesame Seeds, this easy make-ahead salad is ideal for meal prep, potlucks, or light lunches.
