Asian Cabbage Salad

1 (14 oz.) bag coleslaw mix
1 rib celery, sliced
½ cucumber, sliced
1 small handful sugar snap peas (about 20 baby ones)
½ red bell pepper, sliced
¼ of a small red onion, thinly sliced
1 Tbsp. toasted sesame seeds*
1/3 cup slivered or sliced almonds, toasted*
Optional: 1 ½ cup cooked, shredded or diced chicken

Dressing:
2 Tbsp. canola oil
2 Tbsp. cider vinegar
¼ cup seasoned rice wine vinegar
2 Tbsp sugar
1 tsp. kosher salt
2 tsp. soy sauce
¼ tsp. garlic powder
¼ tsp. black pepper

* To toast almonds or sesame seeds, place them (not together, do one thing at a time!) in a dry skillet over medium heat. Turn constantly until golden brown. Let cool before using.

Begin by making dressing. Combine all ingredients in a sealed jar and shake. Store in the fridge until ready to use.

Place all salad ingredients in a bowl

You need to pour on the dressing and toss to coat. Place salad in the fridge to sit for 30-60 minutes. 


Right before serving mix in toasted almonds and sesame seeds.
