General Tso's Salad
By Nicole Nolan
Serves 1 as a light meal or side
The flavor of this salad is reminiscent of General Tso’s chicken or perhaps Bulgogi. At Nicole's suggestion, we have tried substituting the tamari for miso paste to make the dressing stickier and more sauce-like. Then we made wraps with it by folding into collard green leaves. It was really quick and delicious!
Ingredients:
½ Red Bell Pepper, in 1" chunks
¼ cucumber, in chunks
1 cup sprouts
¼ cup cilantro, chopped finely
1 teaspoon wheat free tamari
1 teaspoon sesame oil
dash apple cider vinegar
½ clove garlic, minced
1 inch piece ginger root, minced
dash red chili flakes, to taste
1 teaspoon sesame seeds
Directions:
Put cut up pepper, cucumber and sprouts into a lidded container. Mix tamari, oil, garlic, ginger and chili flakes in a small bowl. Add vinegar to make it thinner if necessary. Pour into container, put lid on, and give it a shake. Add sesame seeds and shake it again.
