1-Making the Dressing First, combine the peanut butter, rice vinegar, sesame oil, lime juice, soy sauce, canola oil, sugar, and honey in a medium bowl or blender. Whisk or blend until it’s nice and smooth that’s your base. Then, stir in the red pepper flakes, garlic, ginger, cilantro, and sesame seeds until everything blends together. Let it sit for 10 minutes so the flavors get to know each other.

2-Assembling the Salad Now, for the salad part: Mix the Napa cabbage or coleslaw mix, red cabbage, sliced red bell pepper, edamame, scallions, and shredded carrots in a large bowl. Toss them gently to combine. Right before you’re ready to eat, drizzle on that homemade dressing and give it another toss for even coverage.
