Thai Vegetable Salad

"Since there’s no kitchen at the venue, I needed to prepare something that’s simple and quick to assemble on the spot. That’s when this Thai Vegetable Salad came into my mind. It’s very photogenic because of the colors. It only requires 4 vegetables which are carrots, green beans, purple cabbage and cherry tomatoes. It didn’t require cooking. All I needed to do was to pre-cut the vegetables and make the Thai salad dressing, then pack them up to go. The assembling was done during the workshop which took less than a minute."

Notes Other vegetable options for the salad: bell peppers, cucumbers, radish, etc.
