Asian Salad

Pin It I posted about my homemade Asian dressing, and someone asked what I put in the salad I dressed it with. Although I am sure you can put the dressing on just about anything you want, this is what I included in my salad.

Cabbage - shredded
Carrots - shredded
Snow peas - ends cut off and cut in half
water chestnuts - sliced
Ground beef  - I made thai lettuce wraps and had the beef left over. I can't exactly remember how I flavored it, but I know I included soy sauce, toasted sesame oil, garlic, ginger and onions. I think I found a recipe for it on Pinterest (where else!)

The nice thing about this salad is that you can make it a few times, usually because a head of cabbage is so large. I also bought a 5 pound bag of carrots, so I had more than enough. I plan to make it again later in the week and will probably use left over chicken.

  1. What a great idea to use cabbage instead of lettuce, especially at this time of the year. I really don't like lettuce and usually make salads without it...but cabbage might be a great alternative! Can't wait to try it!

  2. I really like it with cabbage too. I think the cabbage off sets the sweetness of the dressing.
