Just in time for dinner tonight! Easy & light. Not too sweet but savory too. I skipped the peanuts but that didn't effect the overall. Thanks for sharing!

This was a lovely salad. I can't wait to make it with the Cilantro and green onions, I know that it will be awesome. Today, I made as written but had to omit those ingredients as I was out. The salad was good without them, but will be even better with them. I will re-rate at that time. Next time, I will decrease the amount of soya sauce (personal preference only). Thank you for sharing this tasty dish. Made for Spring Pac 2014.
