Asian Rainbow Salad

Asian Rainbow Salad is filled with bright, crisp, fresh garden vegetables and tossed in a sweet and tart Asian style vinaigrette. Perfect for a summertime cookout or potluck.

There is something very therapeutic about this Asian Rainbow Salad for me. First, It’s chopping the vegetables. While I use a food processor to chop the and red cabbage, I use a small paring knife to chop the red, yellow and green bell peppers to the exact and consistent size (or as close as I can get them). I do cheat on the carrots because I use the pre-shredded carrots from my market.

Secondly, it’s the colors – I mean do I really! So bright, so vibrate. And then there is the crunch of the veggies when you eat them. So crisp they snap with each bite. And finally the sweet and tangy Asian dressing. Truly a taste sensation. This salad also stands up to the dressing, so go ahead and make it several hours before your going to serve it. The veggies will still be crispy and they will be filled with the delicious taste of the dressing.
