In a large bowl add kale, cabbage, bell pepper, carrot, mango, cilantro, mint, and green onions; set aside.
Peanut Dressing: In a blender, add peanut butter, lime juice, honey, vinegar, soy sauce, sesame oil, sriracha, ginger, garlic, and water; puree until smooth and combined, about 1 minute. Or, the ingredients can be whisked together in a medium-sized bowl.
Add more water to thin out the dressing, if desired. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
Gradually add dressing to coat the salad; toss to combine. Drizzle on more dressing if there's any remaining.
Serve, topped with freshly ground black pepper and chopped peanuts.
