3 Tbs rice vinegar
3 Tbs soy sauce or liquid aminos

store.trimhealthymama.com/)Blend dressing until ginger is completely broken down and all ingredients are incorporated. Pour over slaw mixture and toss to coat well. Can be served right away or chilled for a few hours to let flavors marinate.
As written, this salad is a Fuel Pull so pair it with lean meats and a carb source like brown rice, quinoa or sweet potatoes for an E meal. When in E mode, the addition of diced apples or pears lends a sweet crunch to this slaw that delicious.
If in S mode, feel free to be more liberal with the sesame oil in the dressing for a richer flavor. Adding roasted sunflower seeds or almonds adds a great nice crunch to every bite. If in S mode, pair this with a richer meat source and a pan or roasted non-starchy veggies for a satisfying meal.
