Loved making this - the crunch of the green veggies and the spice of the chilly powder was sensational and it felt so clean. I didn’t have time to make hummus but a maple peanut butter dressing diluted with coconut milk worked just as well.

The dressing was way too salty. I followed the measurements on the recipe (sans the thyme) and it came out incredibly tangy/salty. I tossed that batch and made a new one without any salt or pepper, added another spoonful of hummus, and a little bit more water and it came out great.

It was ok. But I didn’t have regular hummus so it might had tasted different as far as the dressing. I only had smoked tomato basil. I will give it another shot with the right ingredients. I also added avocado which was a nice addition!
