When I am in weight loss mode one of my favorite recipes to help conquer the bulge is this Super Easy Asian Slaw with Ginger Dressing. See more light recipes on my Salad page.
I have made this salad from scratch, but it requires a lot of ingredients. I figured out a way to skip all the chopping and dicing by buying a ready-made Asian slaw mix. You can find them in the produce department in the mixed lettuce section. I like the Walmart brand Asian slaw it has the best ginger dressing and cilantro is already included. Take the ingredients in the slaw mix package and add chicken, edamame, and honey to make it more like homemade. I have this slaw for lunch all the time. Beware it can get really addicting!
