NAPA CABBAGE SALAD

Well our usual hot summer weather is finally here and as is typical in California, September will probably heat up even more.  Just in time for the kids going back to school.  Getting ready to celebrate my Daughter's Birthday along with her awesome husband's Birthday, this Saturday.  Big family gathering, so that means lots of cooking.  Then my two beautiful Grand daughters will be staying on here until Wednesday.  Good times!

Today I have a cool, cabbage salad for you.  I am pairing it with grilled potatoes and Tri tip.  Try it tonight or on the weekend for your family.  Crunchy and delicious!

NAPA CABBAGE SALAD

1/2 head of Napa Cabbage shredded
1/2 head of Purple Cabbage shredded
6 Scallions sliced thin
1/2 cup unsalted, toasted peanuts
2 tablespoons toasted Sesame seeds
Dressing
1/2 cup Fresh Lemon Juice
1/2 cup Olive Oil
1/2 tsp Red Pepper flakes
Salt and Pepper

Whisk the dressing until emulsified.  Mix the cabbage, scallions, peanuts and sesame seeds.  Add the dressing and toss.

Great with Tri tip.  Try this dinner tonight or this weekend.  Economical too!

Thanks for stopping in today
Ciao
