    Hearty green tatsoi pairs nicely with a spicy peanut dressing in this tasty salad. A great way to use your farmers' market haul!

    2 plates of Tatsoi Salad with Spicy Peanut Dressing.

    When I was picking up my CSA goodies, I saw a vegetable that was new to me - tatsoi.

    The farmer told me that it was kind of like bok choy and that it was good to stir-fry or in a salad.

    It's slightly bitter and has a really interesting texture. It's hearty and held up nicely to all of the toppings and the heavy dressing that I put on top of it.

    Feel free to use any veggies that you have on hand - I just used what I got from the CSA this week.
