Tips:

- To save time, use store-bought crispy wonton strips or fried shallots. - Add some chopped fresh herbs like cilantro, basil, or mint for extra flavor. - If you don't have rice vinegar, you can substitute white vinegar or apple cider vinegar. - Make sure to use creamy peanut butter for the dressing, as it will give it a smoother texture. - If you like spicy food, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the dressing. - Serve the salad immediately, as the wonton strips will get soggy if they sit for too long.
