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.


Ingredients

  • 1 teaspoon finely grated fresh ginger
  • 1 small garlic clove, grated
  • 2 tablespoon miso paste
  • 2 tablespoon rice wine vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon toasted sesame oil
