Ingredients

Dressing

⅓ cup rice vinegar

4 tablespoons creamy peanut butter, at room temperature

⅓ cup mild-flavored vegetable oil, expeller or cold-pressed

3 tablespoons wheat-free soy sauce (tamari)

3 tablespoons light agave nectar or brown sugar

1 tablespoon shredded peeled fresh ginger

1 tablespoon finely minced garlic

Vegetables

4 cups finely shredded fresh broccoli stems (can be purchased as broccoli slaw)

2 cups assorted of the following: minced or shredded green cabbage and purple cabbage, red and green peppers, and carrots

½ cup thinly sliced scallions (optional)

Broccoli sprouts for garnish

Instructions

Place all dressing ingredients in a medium-sized bowl and whisk to blend well.

Mix vegetables together in a large serving bowl. Add dressing, reserving 1 cupful to serve on the side. Toss to coat slaw.

Top with broccoli or other sprouts. Serve with reserved dressing.

Note: To lower the fat in this recipe, use 5 tablespoons Peanut Butter Powder and enough water to make a very thick peanut butter. Mix in the dressing ingredients except for the oil. Omit the oil and add enough vegetable broth to thin the dressing down to the desired consistency.
