Even though Facebook now sees fit to flood my feed with reels, I rarely pay attention to them. Their food videos are often juvenile, weird or downright disgusting! However, one caught my eye recently. I didn’t get the name of the cook or the recipe . . . and it is nearly impossible (at least for me) to ever find the video again. Anyway, this is my take on the salad reel that I watched. It is simply DELICIOUS! Full of crunch with a punch from the garlic & ginger dressing, and it also just happens to use the ingredients that I usually have on hand. Barry also gave it rave reviews!
We serve the salad with Smoked Ribs (Gates BBQ Rub & Sauce) and Roasted Potatoes |
Veg-Out Salad (I cut the salad in half and it made 4 serving for us)
Veggie Base
About half of a green cabbage, finely chopped
A large handful of baby kale, torn into bite-sized pieces
4 mini Persian cucumbers, diced
1 red or yellow bell pepper or use a mini red & yellow, chopped into small pieces
A handful of fresh cilantro, optional
Crunchy Addition
Salted and roasted pumpkin seeds – a handful or so
- Combine veggie base in a bowl or dish (I added to the serving dish). Sprinkle with pumpkin seeds.
- Right before serving, drizzle with dressing and toss.
Dressing
1 heaping tablespoon+ freshly minced ginger
3 to 4 cloves fresh garlic, fined chopped or minced
4 tablespoons (1/4 cup) mayonnaise (I used olive oil mayo)
5 tablespoons rice vinegar
1 tablespoon sesame oil + 2 tablespoons avocado or extra-virgin olive oil
Salt & pepper to taste.
Combine all ingredients and blend until well combined.
