Cold Thai Beef Salad image

I love making this salad the night after a big beef dinner. It's lighter and more refreshing than next-day beef sandwiches! The vegetables I've used vary every time, depending on what I have on-hand. Shrimp also works well, if you don't have beef.

I'm going to try making this salad with chicken next time. I think it would be just as good.

This salad is a great way to use up leftover beef. I always have some leftover steak or roast beef in my fridge, and this is the perfect way to use it up.

I love the combination of textures in this salad - the crispy beef, the soft noodles, and the crunchy vegetables. It's a really satisfying dish.

This Thai beef salad was a hit at my dinner party! The flavors were incredible, and the beef was cooked perfectly. I'll definitely be making this again.
