When you decide to enjoy a salad as a main meal you are taking a big risk, since it is very likely that it will either be unhealthy or you will not be full.

Materials:

For the salad:

  • 1/2 green cabbage, chopped
  • 1/2 purple cabbage, chopped
  • 2 cups carrots, chopped
  • 1 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
  • 1/2 cup chopped green onion
  • 2 cups cooked edamame
  • 1-2 cups roasted cashews
  • 2 cups noodles (optional)
  • chicken, (alternatively instead of chicken you can put shrimps)

For the dressing:

  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 3 spoons of white vinegar
  • 2 spoons of sesame oil
  • 2 tablespoons of sugar
  • 1 teaspoon of salt
  • some garlic powder
  • optional: 1/4 cup yogurt or mayonnaise

Implementation:

  1. Mix well (in a blender or in a shaker) all the ingredients of the dressing until they are homogeneous. Add the yogurt or mayonnaise (if you put it in at all) and mix well again, until smooth.
  2. Put all the salad ingredients in a large bowl and mix well with your hands. Pour the dressing over the salad and it’s ready to serve!
