I’m not the best when it comes to creating Asian recipes… I didn’t really grow up eating Chinese or Japanese food, so it’s more of a recent love affair. This Whole30 + Paleo Asian Chicken salad is pretty dang delicious, though!! It’s definitely one of my favorite salads now! Try it and let me know what you think 🙂
