We're crazy about this Spicy Thai Peanut Dressing, which is packed with flavor & protein. Make this dressing in less than 10 minutes and serve it on your favorite salad, Asian-inspired noodles, or as a dip for veggies. 

This easy dressing recipe gets a kick of spice from sriracha. If you don't want to make it spicy, simply omit the sriracha or add 1-2 tablespoons. To heat things up, add more sriracha or a finely minced pepper.
