Asian Chopped Cabbage Salad

I am such a sucker for a good Asian Chopped Salad especially if I see seared tuna right on top. The flavors are so good and the salad itself has a great crunch factor throughout each bite. What I love most about this meal, besides all the flavors, is that it’s a great meal prep salad. Kale and cabbage don’t wilt and in fact, the longer it sits in the dressing the better. SO make it on a “Meal Prep Sunday” and enjoy it throughout the week.

I made this salad without any meat because I served it with my Salmon Terriyaki recipe. But I prepped some grilled chicken and enjoyed this the next day. So be sure to add any protein of choice if that’s your jam.
