Food Challenge Week 4:  Sesame Ginger Dressing

1/25/2016

1 Comment

 
Last week we got bombed with a pretty vicious cold.  So, "when life hands you lemons," make yummy ginger things!  I went with a very simple ginger/sesame dressing adapted from AnneMarie's Ginger Lime Asian Slaw on her blog, "Real Food Real Deals."  I put it over some mixed vegetables with plenty of raw ginger.  It had a good kick and was delicious mixed with hard boiled eggs or roasted chicken.  Her recipe calls for cooking the onions and ginger.  I would have done that but didn't have the option.  So I just used raw and it still came out great!

Ingredients:
DRESSING
½ tsp. salt
1 tbs. fresh lime juice
1 tbs. light olive oil
1 tbs. minced onion
1 tbs. minced fresh ginger
1 tbs. honey
2 tbs. ACV  (Apple Cider Vinegar)
 
SALAD
Equal parts veggies enough to fill a 9x13x3 inch dish.  I used veggies that wouldn't get soggy in dressing.
1 small head of cabbage, chopped (about 3-4 cups)
2 large carrots (spiraled)
2 cups Sprouts
1/2 cup mix of sesame/flax/sunflower/pumpkin seeds
1/2 cup shredded fresh ginger
 
Directions:
1.  Spiral the carrots, toss them together with the cabbage and sprouts in a bowl and set aside.  
2. Process all the dressing ingredients in a food processor until smooth.  
3. Toss the veggies with the dressing and store in the fridge for up to a week.  The salad should be eaten chilled.
7.  Enjoy!
 
Ideas for Eating:
Eat it throughout the week either by itself or mixed with pre-roasted chicken.  Add spinach for an extra boost of healthy goodness and flavor!  I tried it with hard-boiled eggs and it was delicious.  My husband Bob raved about adding sardines to it.  To each their own!

This was tasty. I put mine on chopped up broccoli and kale. I added halved grapes, almond slivers, and toasted coconut. It's a winner!
