Here is an incredible fresh raw salad loaded with tons of flavor, sure to create a audible "mmmm" at first bite.
It's a simple formula - chop veggies, mix dressing in a blender and marinade for a minimum of 1 hour. There are no measurements because you add the ingredients according to what you like most (or in my case, what I have on hand). And every ingredient is optional.
**Perfect for lunch boxes and taking a friend a meal**

Tonight, I'm serving this with a meatless burger. If it turns out well, I'll share that with you too!
In the photo above, I used only cabbage, snow peas and carrots. I didn't have any of the other ingredients on hand and it was just as tasty as the first time I made it with EVERYTHING listed above.
Now you know everything you need to make a gorgeous Asian Salad (or slaw).
Now Go Cook!
