Copycat Panera Asian Sesame Dressing

In an effort to consume more greens in our diet, I've been packing salad for our lunch to bring to work. Every morning I chop fresh vegetables. There is something serene and peaceful about prepping veggies. Maybe it's just me, but it puts me in a happy place where time stops and life is nothing but simple.

With eating more greens, I've started to make my own salad dressings. My personal favourite is the dressing that accompanies Panera's, Asian Sesame Chicken Salad. I love sesame taste and the dressing has a sweetness to it. I haven't checked how much it costs at the restaurant to purchase just the dressing compared to finding the recipe and slapping it together myself, however I chose the later for cooking experience.

It's fantastic! I got the recipe from iowagirleats.com. She has the recipe down to the chicken it comes with. Here's the fantastic recipe for the whole shabang. LOVE IT! Tastes like the real thing.
