For the chopped Asian salad:

  • 1 cup frozen edamame, thawed
  • 2 carrots, peeled and grated
  • ¼ of a red cabbage, thinly sliced
  • ¼ of a green cabbage, thinly sliced
  • 1 red pepper, thinly sliced
  • ½ cup green onions, chopped
  • ½ cup cilantro, chopped
  • ½ cup sliced almonds
  • 2 tablespoons sesame seeds

Instructions

  • For the dressing: add all the remaining dressing ingredients to a small bowl and mix. Set aside so that the flavours can intensify. You can also make this dressing ahead of time and store in an air tight contained in the fridge.
  • For the salad: in a large bowl, add all of the salad ingredients. Pour the dressing over top and toss well to combine. You can serve this right away, or you can let everything marinate and serve later. It will just get more flavourful as it soaks. 

Notes

This is a great recipe to bring to pot lucks as it just keeps getting better as it sits, and is even still good the next day!
