Notes

  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days, but the cashews will soften over time.
  • This salad is best served cold, so reheating is not recommended; instead, add a handful of fresh cashews for extra crunch if it has been refrigerated.
  • Serve this crunchy salad on croissants, lettuce wraps, or with crackers for a delightful lunch or light dinner.
  • For an extra flavor boost, lightly toast the cashews in a dry skillet before adding them to the salad.
