Chinese Cole Slaw

Chinese Cole Slaw

It’s been ages since I posted.  I had a problem with my recipe plug in a few months back and after fighting with it for 3 hours, I got frustrated and gave up.  Last weekend I tried again and figured it out in less than an hour, so I’m ready to go now!!!  I will be posting a lot of my new favorite summer recipes now, so stay tuned!

I must admit, I am addicted to this salad.  It’s an amazing side dish to any summer BBQ that you go to.  It also makes a great main course if you add protein to it.  I’ve added roasted chicken, grilled chicken, grilled shrimp, Ahi tuna, whatever you like.

You can also add other veggies.  Snap peas, edamame, avocado, whatever strikes your fancy!
