Quick and Easy Crunchy Asian Salad
A quick delicious and satisfying salad
Servings: 4 servings
Ingredients
- 8 oz bag of shredded cabbage usually one small bag
- 1 bag chopped romaine lettuce or 1 head of romaine lettuce chopped
- 1 package of crunchy wonton noodles.
- ¼ cup of slivered almonds
- 3 tablespoon of toasted sesame seeds I buy these in a container already toasted and ready to eat
Dressing
- 1 cup of mayonnaise or substitute lowfat yogurt
- ¼ cup of soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon of toasted sesame oil optional
- Water to thin out if necessary I add 1 tablespoon at a time until it reaches the perfect creamy consistency.
Instructions
- On a large platter, empty the coleslaw bag and baby spinach on to the platter, tossing it all together until evenly mixed. Now add your crunchy wontons.
- Sprinkle your sesame seeds over top.
- Next, place your slivered almonds in a small pan over medium heat for 5 minutes tossing occasionally to get them lightly toasted. Remove from heat let cool. Time saver tip: You can save yourself time and buy already toasted almonds!
- For the dressing, in a medium bowl, mix together the Mayonnaise (or low fat plain yogurt), soy sauce and toasted sesame oil. If the dressing seems too thick, add 1 tablespoon of water at a time until it reaches a desired consistency.
- Next, take your almonds and add that to your salad. Drizzle your salad with a little bit (or a lot) of your dressing.
- Serve the salad with the extra chow mein noodles and remaining dressing on the side.
