'Asian' inspired salad.

Well, I haven't posted in a while, so today when I was eating dinner, halfway through I decided to take a photo. This is my favorite salad ever -- we make a huge bowl with my family and it ends up being two (or 3) servings per person. Totally fills you up and tastes amazing!


Picture doesn't do it justice at all. Here are the ingredients.


  • butter lettuce (a good bunch)
  • cilantro, handful (chopped)
  • 1 cucumber (we used a Persian one -- a quarter of an English cucumber will do)
  • corn (can be baby or normal, we used canned normal corn)
  • 2 2x3inch pieces of Teriyaki tofu (we buy it from Trader Joes) OR you can use sliced pieces of chicken breast.
  • 1 avocado
  • 1 small can of mandarins
  • crunchy chow mein noodles, handful
  • a few slices of pickled ginger, cut in thin strips
  • sesame ginger dressing (we used Annie's Naturals brand)
The instructions aren't that difficult. Simply cut up what needs to be cut up and toss the ingredients together. Feel free to add salt, pepper, or lemon along with the dressing. Enjoy! It tastes amazing, I promise -- and it's addictive.
