Summer Slaw

Looking for a light summer salad to serve along-side something that has enough flavor to hold it’s own? Then this salad is the perfect pairing.

Source: Weight Watchers weekly reader
Serves: 6- 1 points plus

Ingredients:
4 cups shredded Napa cabbage
1 ½ cups peeled and shredded jicama
1 cup shredded radishes
2 Tbs fresh lime juice
2 Tbs rice vinegar
1 tsp dark sesame oil
½ tsp ground cumin
½ tsp salt

Toss the cabbage, jicama and radishes in a salad bowl.

Add other ingredients and toss to coat.

*To slice the jicama and radishes, pass them through the large holes of a box grater. If making this in advance, store it covered in the refrigerator for up to 2 days omitting the salt; add just before serving.

I thought the cumin was a bit strong so next time I’ll probably only use ¼ tsp.
