Peanut, Orange and Carrot Salad

By pattie_d

Ingredients

• 1/4 cup peanut butter
• 3 tablespoons Tamari (dark soy sauce)
• Juice of 1 orange
• One 1-inch piece ginger, peeled and grated
• One 1-pound bag shredded carrots
• 4 scallions, thinly sliced (for people's portions only)
• 1/4 cup chopped peanuts
• Salt and pepper

Preparation

Step 1

In a medium microwaveable bowl, microwave the peanut butter for about 10 seconds to soften. Whisk in the Tamari, orange juice and ginger; stir in a splash of hot water if the sauce begins to tighten up.

Stir the carrots into the dressing and toss. For your pooch, pack a picnic-size portion and label it.

For the people's portions, scatter the scallions and peanuts on the remaining salad; season to taste with salt and pepper.
