This was excellent!! Easy and delicious, not to mention nutritious! I made a couple tweaks to ingredient amounts for personal preference - I only used 2 green onions and 1 large garlic clove because I have to be around people during the day. :) Also, I cut WAAY back on the red pepper flakes. 2 TBSP is a LOT, so I used about 1/2 tsp, and there was plenty of fire. And I like spicy, too. Also, I used 1 tbsp sesame oil and 3 tbsp olive oil - sesame is such a strong oil, with this amount, the flavor came through quite nicely. There are so many variations on this, I can't wait to make this again! Broccoli, cukes, whatever is in the fridge. Thanks, I'll make this often!

This was delish. I added about 3/4 of an english cucumber, skinned and juliened. It added a wonderful coolness to the salad. I will definately make this again. I can see myself adding broccoli slaw sometimes too. I used less pepper flakes and only used 3 green onions because of DS and DD. Thanks for sharing! Made for Green Eggs & Ham Asian Game.

I came across this while searching for something to use up my leftover vegetables. I'm really impressed. I had to make some adjustments; I didn't have carrots so I left it out (they mostly just add color anyhow) and I didn't realize it until I was halfway through making it but I was out of sesame oil so I had to use olive oil. I took a bite right after I mixed it up and it's already super flavorful so I can only assume that tomorrow it's going to be amazing! Next time I make this I will make SURE that I have sesame oil on hand because I'm sure it will make the dish. I'll also probably serve this with some chopped peanuts for texture. Thanks for posting!!

Delicious. I love that I could make this on the weekend for lunches later in the week. That's a great time saver for me. The taste is really great. I love the hot pepper flakes. Only change I made was to use much lass sesame oil- but that's for my own dietary restriction. I'm sure it would be lovely with the full amount. Thanks for posting, I would make this again.
