I don't like to brag, but I fancy myself a pretty decent salad maker. Salads are one of my favorite things in the whole world because there are no rules and you can literally throw anything in, toss it up, and likely feel healthy about it.
In the summer, I'm all about the slaw. I bring it to picnics, parties, and eat it more than three times a week. It's fast, easy, and you don't have to turn on a stove or oven to make it.
Here's my slaw of the moment, but get creative and make your own! You can eat it as a meal with some protein on top, as a side, or heap it on some tacos. No rules.
Asian Slaw
Garlic/Ginger Powder
Green Onion
Shredded - Cabbage (purple & green), B Sprouts, Carrots, Kale (any green I have on hand)
Coconut Aminos
Toasted Sesame Oil
Black Sesame Seeds
Mince Garlic and mix with Powdered Ginger. Add Toasted Sesame Oil and Coconut Aminos. Stir it up.
Shred your Veg: Seriously, I use any and everything I have.
Mix in the dressing and throw some green onions and sesame seeds on top.
Pairs well with: Salmon, Chicken, Pork, an IPA or a crisp White Wine
This salad is an excellent way to create a light meal, clean out your fridge, and pack tons of veggies into your day.
