1/4 C seasoned rice wine vinegar

Instructions
Instructions:
Begin by making dressing. Combine all ingredients in a sealed jar and shake Store in the fridge until ready to use.
Place all salad ingredients in a bowl
For best results, pour on the dressing and toss to coat 20 minutes before serving. When you pour the dressing on you might think it’s not quite enough, but just wait. When it sits and marinates, it combines with the veggies and draws out liquid and there will be more than plenty of dressing after it sits.
Right before serving mix in toasted almonds and sesame seeds.
