I want to marry this salad. I’m serious.

May 4, 2010

I want to marry this salad. I’m serious.

Bestsaladever

My neighbor, who is really healthy and eats amazing food, recently passed along a recipe for cabbage slaw, slated to accompany fish tacos.

I decided to tweak the recipe a bit, adding a few extra calories, but created a flavor profile that I'm sorry, I would like to marry. Right now.

Featuring a subtle Asian flair, this salad went just as easily with shredded chicken tacos as it did with chicken satay we had last night (with Trader Joe's Satay Sauce in lieu of the one given by the recipe).  This salad recipe makes 4 huge servings, at 2 points a pop.

If you break down the salad into smaller servings, then you'll eat fewer points. I like to load up on this, and it's all I can do to not eat it every single night.

Enjoy!

    I am making this tonight – I love you Cathy Zielske! I am doing Weight Watchers online and I have gotten some really great recipes from your blog, along with finding Gina’s Weight Watchers recipe site. I can’t wait to see the chicken satay receipe.

    I had something similiar to this at a dinner party the other week, but they added (sounds strange but it was good) sauteed raw ramen noodles and shrimp. They added the oriental ramen seasoning to it. No vinegar and cilantro I think. But definitely sesame oil.

    This looks so yummy. I could (erm…can and do) eat blue cheese cole slaw all day long, and I am sure this would be just as delicious.

    I have a fabulous recipe for fish tacos that even my 5, 8 and 11-year-old children love! It’s my own recipe made up of various parts of about 4 different fish taco recipes. It’s so yummy!

    I went vegan in January, so now only my hubby & kids get to enjoy it. Email me or post a comment on my blog (http://tamiespears.vox.com) and I’ll send you the recipe.

    Cathy – thank you for posting the salad recipe. I’m adding it to my binder of fabulous vegan recipes and I’ll mention it on my blog, linking back to you, if I make it! (if that’s ok)

    Hi Cathy, I’m a fellow WWer & a Chef (and not to winge, but cooking is NOT a career that makes points-following easy . . . still, I made Gold (Lifetime to you) in Spring of 2009 – so have just survived a year of managing to maintain.) Anyhow, thought – given your title for this post – that you might like to know that in the catering world, when we leave things for a while for the flavours to ‘come together’ we call it ‘allowing the flavours to marry.’ Fun, eh?! Cheers.

    wow thanks cathy!
    after reading your blog about you hitting into the 150’s, (Congrats!), i’m considering once again doing WWS. but i’m in the 20 point range as well, and i never can last a week on it. i just want to nap everyday. i’m not sure what i do wrong, but it makes it super hard if i have no engery left without a nap.
    anyways, thanks again cathy. i love reading about your progress!

    This recipe sounded so good I went and got purple cabbage to add to my garden. Already growing cilantro! Also stopped at the grocery cause those little cabbage plants are going to take a while. LOL

    yum, sounds delish! have you tried the spicy peanut dressing from trader joe’s? it’s so good and has some kick, so a little goes a long way.
