A Salad of the Asian Persuasion

Several months ago I went over to my friend Minda’s house for a girl’s night centered around flat-bread pizzas. Each person brought a salad or something to to add to the pizzas. My friend Caitlin brought the most amazing Asian salad dressing and a love affair was born.

The fact that my side salad was the highlight of my meal (and not my pizza!) should really tell ya something.

Today’s lunch was a salad full of veggies coated in the delicious Asian dressing.

The dressing is Kraft Light Asian Sesame dressing and while I am not a fan of the ingredients (high fructose corn syrup – eek!), I am a huge fan of the taste.

I used broccoli slaw as my salad base and topped it with French cut green beans, cold steamed broccoli and cauliflower florets, sliced zucchini and a chopped-up Morningstar Farms Asian veggie patty.

I poured the delicious dressing over the salad and shook it up before digging in.

Yum, Yum

I love the little sesame seeds in the dressing. They’re so cute and teeny-tiny. Is it weird hat I licked the Tupperware I used to bring my salad dressing to work?
