We really liked the Asian flair of this coleslaw. It was a nice change from your everyday traditional coleslaw. I took a few liberties with this recipe and made it more of a Chinese chicken coleslaw. I used green onion and went heavy on the cilantro. I also added a couple of handfuls of peanuts, crispy chow mein noodles, and chopped, cooked chicken. To the dressing, I added about 1/2 tsp. soy sauce and 1 tsp. honey. This made a wonderful, quick lunch salad. Thank you for sharing! ** Made for 2013 Divisional Football Playoffs**

Both hubby and I really enjoyed this recipe in spite of the fact that I was pretty free-wheeling with the measurements. I think I was a bit light on the cilantro and heavy on the sesame oil, but it was still very good. I made a substitution of 1/2 head cabbage and 1 carrot for the coleslaw mix, but I think it was around 3 cups overall. I used fresh ginger (maybe about 1/2 Tbsp. or so.) I did put a bit of red bell pepper in and that was good. I will be making this again.
