SALAD INGREDIENTS
- 5 ounces cups mixed greens (or greens of choice)
- 1 handful micro greens (optional)
- 2 persimmons, sliced
- 1/4 cup crumbled goat cheese
- 2 tablespoons sliced almonds
- Fresh cracked pepper, to taste
- Sesame seeds, for garnish (optional)
SESAME-GINGER DRESSING INGREDIENTS
- 1–2 tablespoons fresh minced ginger or ginger paste
- 1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil
- 1 tablespoons light oil, such as grapeseed
- 3 tablespoons mirin or rice cooking wine
- 1 tablespoon unfiltered, organic honey, such as Appalachian Bee’s Wildflower Honey
- 2 teaspoons fresh squeezed lemon or orange juice
Instructions
- Whisk the Sesame-Ginger Dressing ingredients in a small bowl until well combined. Divide dry ingredients between two bowls and toss in the Sesame-Ginger Dressing or your favorite Asian-inspired salad dressing. Enjoy!
Notes
- We love ginger at our house so I use two generous tablespoons of it in the Sesame-Ginger Dressing, but we’re not big on sesame oil so I scale back and add an equal amount of grapeseed oil for a more delicate flavor. Play with the measurements according to your preferences.
- Bulk up your salad with protein – edamame, chicken, salmon and shrimp are all delicious options.
