Salad

Sesame-Ginger Dressing
- 1/3 cup soy sauce

Instructions
- Make the dressing. Combine all the dressing ingredients in a mason jar, cover, and shake really well until the dressing is emulsified. I like to use an immersion blender here, but a mason jar is the easiest way to mix the dressing and also store it.
- Chop your veggies and greens. Chop all your veggies up! Shred the romaine and cabbages into bite sized pieces. Then, chop the cucumber, shred the carrots, slice the green onions, and get the toppings together.
- Assemble. Assemble! Mix your greens with chopped veggies, shredded chicken, and other ingredients and then toss with dressing.
