I really enjoyed this delicious slaw Nancy. My dh is allergic to nuts, so I got to enjoy this for my lunch. I scaled it down for one, it worked perfectly. It was very tasty, had great flavors and excellent textures. I never tried a napa cabbage before, its terrific, I really enjoyed the texture. The dressing was wonderful and tied everything together beautiful. I will be making this quick and easy to make salad often. Thank you so much for sharing. Made for Best of 2014 Tag Game.

Doing the happy dance! A definite make again recipe. I cut the recipe in half, and was soooo disappointed that I did. We made this dish ahead of our stir fry and egg rolls, so everyone kept coming to get a "spoonful".....We barely had enough to serve. Thanks for sharing!

Now let me start by saying "This family are in no way, coleslaw fan's", and if there is an exception to the rule, I have found it!<br/>Apart from using chives & parsley instead of cilantro leaf, which DS does not like in any way shape or form and also halving the recipe, everything was followed as written.<br/>This is only my 2nd time using rice vinegar for me, something of which I am becoming totally addicted to.....lol<br/>Nancy we loved this recipe, everything went so well together, sweet, sour and crunchy....and just perfect flavours and the added bonus is that this recipe is so quick and so easy! <br/>I think I used a little more than stated for the nut's, only because DH addores nuts in anything....... and whenever I make something unusual, his response is "You know what it need's?"...... "Yes dear I know, NUT's!<br/>So it was interesting to hear his comment....... I did get "You know what it need's?" And he wasn't joking he said something or other, to which I turned off too........... I just could not be bothered................typical male!!!!! But then said he loved it, as did the whole family.<br/>Nancy I always know when a recipe is really good, because straight after dinner you see the plastic container's come out.... everyone trying to beat the other to the leftover's for lunch for the next day....... and not too mention the argument's of who will fill them ..... You see the one who fill's the container's can sneak more into their's! ....lol. ;-)

Scaled back to use 1/2 a wombak cabbage and with the exception of using crunchy peanut butter made as per recipe, to be honest I was worried that the rice vinegar would over take all the other flavours and though its sharpness did come through it was fully complimented from the other flavours especially once added to the salad and the most impressive for me was not only did the DM eat up all her portion but she came back for seconds so from a 4 person serve I ended up with about 1/2 a serve. Thank you Nancy's Pantry, made for Make My Recipe - Edition 15.
