Preparation
Chef’s notes
This Asian slaw keeps well if you make it ahead of time, so it’s a great recipe to prep for lunch. Pair it with avocado summer rolls or peanut spring rolls, or enjoy it on its own!
I often top it with baked tofu or tempeh for extra protein. See this post for more healthy lunch ideas!
With its fresh, tangy, umami flavor, this Asian slaw also makes a show-stopping cookout side dish. Serve it with whatever you’re grilling, or with one of these fun cookout recipes.
