Ingredients

For the dressing:

  • 2 tablespoons avocado oil
  • 2 tablespoons sesame oil
  • 2 tablespoons brown rice vinegar or any rice vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons coconut aminos or low sodium soy sauce
  • 1 to 2 tablespoons maple syrup*
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 tablespoon freshly grated ginger
  • toasted sesame seeds optional

For the salad:

  • 3 to 4 cups shredded green cabbage
  • 1 to 2 cups chopped romaine lettuce
  • 1/2 cup shredded carrots
  • 2 cooked chicken breasts** shredded, cubed or diced
  • 1/3 cup green onions finely diced
  • 1/2 cup sliced almonds for garnish

Instructions

  • For the dressing: Whisk together all the ingredients. Taste and adjust anything as needed.
  • For the salad: Using a large mixing bowl, mix together all of the ingredients. Drizzle the sesame ginger dressing over the top (you don't have to use all of it at once), mix well and enjoy!

Notes

*if using coconut aminos, 1 T of maple syrup will work. If using soy sauce, you will probably want to add 2 T of maple syrup
**you can also just use a store bought rotisserie chicken, or you can simply boil, poach or pan fry your chicken.
