Chinese Chicken Salad

Here is one of my new favorites discovered during the Whole 30. The secret is in this dressing. This is also great lunch to pack the night before since the cabbage doesn't get nasty when sitting in a lunch box all day.

Chinese Chicken Salad
Easy lemon chicken
Napa cabbage
Carrots
chopped sugar snap peas (optional)
Chopped cashews
A small bit of finely chopped cilantro

Ginger salad dressing:
3/4 c.-olive oil
1/4 c.-soy sauce (I just omitted this during the whole 30 and it was good but soy sauce makes it way better)
1/4 c. rice vinegar
1 T-sugar (I omitted this during the whole 30 but added some coconut milk instead)
1/4c.-cashews
2 garlic cloves
2 T worth of fresh ginger
1/2 t-salt (if you omitted the soy sauce, it may need a little more)
Put everything in a blender and blend until the ginger, garlic, and cashews are completely incorporated. Enjoy!
