Ingredients

1/2 head Napa cabbage (shredded)
1 bunch green onion (thinly sliced)
1 bag frozen edamame (10 oz., thawed)
1/4 cup peanut butter (creamy or crunchy)
2 Tbsp. white vinegar
2 Tbsp. soy sauce
4 Tbsp. apple juice (orange juice, or water)
1 knob ginger (1 inch, peeled, finely grated)
2 cloves garlic (finely minced)
1/4 cup roasted peanuts (chopped)

Instructions

Place cabbage, green onion, and edamame in a large mixing bowl. Set aside.
Whisk together: peanut butter, vinegar, soy sauce, juice or water, ginger, and garlic. (If you have a blender, use the blender to blend these ingredients.)
Drizzle the dressing over the bowl of vegetables. Use just enough dressing to coat vegetables. Use tongs to toss well to coat. Refrigerate remaining dressing for another time.
Top with roasted peanuts.
