This incredibly flavor-packed, completely vegan dressing turns inexpensive cabbage and carrots into a memorable side dish with tons of texture. We like this alongside brown rice and avocado or underneath any grilled protein. The easy Miso-Ginger Dressing is also a great dip for vegetables.

- 1 teaspoon finely grated fresh ginger
- 1 small garlic clove, grated
- 2 tablespoon miso paste
