My kids loved it! Finally a salad they eat! Will make again for sure. 🥗
Fish sauce? Yuck! I swapped it for ketchup. Still turned out okay. 😂
Tried it yesterday and the chicken was a bit dry. Maybe I overcooked it? Not bad overall, but needs tweaking.
This was super delicious! The flavors were so bright and fresh. I could eat this every day!
Easy to follow! But I used leftover rotisserie chicken instead. Not sure if I messed it up.
Why you put fish sauce? Yuck! Who wants fish in their salad? Disgusting!
This was delicious! The flavors were so fresh and vibrant. Definitely a keeper! 😍
Sounds amazing! I love Thai flavors! 🌶️
So easy to make! I had all the ingredients ready. The lime juice added a lovely tang!
I don’t know, it was kinda bland for me. I expected more kick. Maybe I didn’t add enough chili?
What kind of noodles is rice noodles? Never heard of it. I used spaghetti instead and it tasted weird.
I thought Thai food was all spicy?? This was kinda bland. More chili next time.
Can I use tofu instead of chicken? I’m vegetarian. Would the recipe still work? 🤔
Too many herbs for me. It was like chewing on a garden! 😅
I think the herbs add a lot of flavor! But I get it. Some people don’t like that much. Maybe just reduce them next time? 😊
This sounds fancy for a salad. I like simple stuff. I’ll stick to my lettuce and ranch lol.
