Here’s a recipe that I created when I bought a case of napa on sale – you don’t even want to know how much that is! A whole lot, even for a family of 11 that likes lots of veggies!
Almond Sesame Napa Salad
- 1 head napa, shredded (you can also use cabbage or romaine)
- 3 oranges, peeled and sectioned
- 2 T. olive oil
- 2 t. Bragg’s amino acids or soy sauce
- 1 T. sesame seeds
- 1/4 c. sliced almonds
Toss the napa/cabbage with the orange sections. Mix the olive oil and Braggs/soy sauce, adding in the sesame seeds. Toss in the sliced almonds at the end.
You can play around with this basic recipe – if you substitute romaine for the napa, you can substitute diced avocado for the almonds and leave out the sesame seeds. That’s what I made this weekend, yum! You can also add a sweetener to the simple olive oil and soy sauce dressing, but I prefer the natural sweetness of the orange segments, though sometimes I’ll juice an orange and add it to the dressing.
