I have been eating this Kale and Cashew Salad with Maple Tahini Dressing on repeat lately. I love the crunch from the kale, cabbage and cashews, and the punch of flavor from the mint, cilantro and Serrano pepper. The creamy maple tahini dressing ties all of the flavors and textures together nicely. It is my new favorite salad.
