The salad was simple to throw together and didn’t require a lot of effort to prepare. Ryan was also a big fan!
We ended up having a little leftover and I actually liked it even more when I dug into it at dinnertime last night since the flavors had some time to develop. I think this salad would make a fabulous side dish for a summertime barbeque!

This would be delicious wrapped up in a tortilla with chicken! Thanks for the idea!!!
I thought about adding chicken but was too lazy to make some at the time! I think that would be fabulous!!
Omg great minds think alike. This sounds tremendous.
Looks great! I love your dishes too!
What was the specific dressing that you used? This salad looks fantastic! Can’t wait to try!
yum! this sounds great!
You should add raw Ramen or chow mein noodles for some more crunch! So yummy!!
I love salads for lunch! Thanks for the recipe.
Oh my gosh, looks so good! Also looks addicting, like I could eat 5 bowls of it. Haha! Definitely pinning this to make VERY soon!
Looks delicious!!
YUM! Trying this, thanks!
Yum this sounds like a perfect salad for summertime!
Yum this looks good! Love using fruit (especially citrus) in salads, especially with the greek yoghurt. Good idea.
Hey Julie! Long time reader, first time commenter (haha). Wasn’t sure where else to write this… I was wondering if you saw the article in the Chicago Trib about Ocala being one of the worst places for single people. Obviously I know you’re happily married, but I don’t know anyone else in any of those cities and I’m curious what you think! http://articles.chicagotribune.com/2014-04-04/classified/ct-home-worst-cities-singles-20140404_1_singles-household-income-cities/2. Anyway, love your blog! You’re so cute.
Totally agree with it!! It already feels like there aren’t a lot of young people here, and most people we know that are around our age or in their early 20s are married with kids already!
I love asian salads!!! This one looks amazing! I can’t wait to try it sometime!
Gorgeous!!! Love shredded veggies..they some how always taste more amazing and way easier to eat raw!
Yum! I have a great Asian style lemon ginger chicken recipe that I’m definitely going to top this salad with!
This screams SUMMER to me!
This looks fabulous!
That sounds absolutely delicious! And it is so versatile…in a wrap, over a bed of lettuce, on a bun… I make an Asian Noodle recipe that I love! It sounds similar…linguine noodles, celery, green onions, diced chicken, stirred in with Asian dressing. Mmm! Definitely a fan of that flavor combo!
I caught up on your blog before leaving work today and stopped to get everything at the store to make this salad for dinner. It is delicious and such a great mix of flavors. I couldn’t find Asian dressing so I went the greek route and used Greek dressing and also added some feta cheese & kalamata olives. This was my first time having broccoli slaw. Thanks for sharing and inspiring my dinner.
So happy to hear this!
