What is a good salad recipe for red and green cabbage?

I would like to incorporate jumbo shrimp in it also.What is a good salad recipe for red and green cabbage?
I think I'd serve the shrimp on the side, but you can certainly add them if you wish.








Mock Bok Choy Cabbage Salad





3 oz ramen noodle soup mix - Oriental flavor


录 cup salted sunflower seeds


录 cup slivered almonds


3 Tbsp. butter


2/3 cup vegetable or canola oil


1/3 cup cider vinegar


2陆 Tbsp. sugar (or 4 packets Splenda)


1 Tbsp. soy sauce


陆 head of cabbage, sliced very thinly


2 shredded carrots (or sub 2 bags of cole slaw mix for cabbage and carrots)


5-6 green onions, sliced diagonally





Remove flavor pack from soup, set aside. Melt butter in small nonstick skillet. Break ramen noodles into pieces and place in skillet with butter; add sunflower seeds and almonds, and saute 5-8 min or until toasted, stirring occasionally. Drain on paper plate or paper towel.





Whisk flavor pack, oil, vinegar, sugar, and soy sauce in bowl until blended.





Place cabbage and carrots in a large bowl, add sliced onions. Mix dressing into cabbage mix. Place noodle mix around the outside edge of cabbage. (Makes a nice presentation, but for our family I just toss it all together).





(If you need a large quantity, use the big bag of coleslaw mix from Sams and doubled the other ingredients.)What is a good salad recipe for red and green cabbage?
do a japanese slaw and toss the shrimp in, or serve them hibachi style or grilled...





Crunchy Cabbage and Daikon Salad





2 cup shredded purple cabbage


2 cup shredded green cabbage


1 cup shredded daikon


2 cups shredded carrot


Sesame Vinaigrette ( I won't tell you how much to add because that's a personal thing- to douse or not to douse)





I used a funky shredder that makes thin, sinewy slices. I use it all the time. So as far as gadgets go this is one that is pretty helpful. Mix all in a large bowl.





Sesame Vinaigrette





1/4 cup rice vinegar


1 tablespoon honey


1/4 cup sesame oil


3 tablespoons canola oil


1 tablespoon water








Place all ingredients in a bottle and shake it up. A little exercise for yah! This is a superb dressing. I was suppose to add a tablespoon of peanut oil but I just added an extra tablespoon of canola...
i love just a cabbage salad, really thinly shredded, sliced tomatoes, with a nice thousand island dressing drizzled on top...grill the shrimp and add it on top! yum!
