Combine ingredients: Toss cabbage, carrots, bell pepper, green onions, cilantro and shredded chicken in a large salad bowl or the salad chopper bowl.
Add dressing: Toss with dressing to taste.
Serve: Portion salad on a plate. Top with sliced avocado and chopped almonds.
- Napa Cabbage: A crunchy lettuce like romaine would work as a good substitute.
- Vegetarian: You can omit the chicken for a vegetarian salad and add in some chickpeas, tempeh, or tofu for added protein.
- Red pepper: Not a fan of red bell peppers or don't have any on hand? Feel free to use green or yellow instead.
- Cheese: If you're looking to add in some cheese to this salad I think feta would work well.
- Dressing: I love the chili almond dressing I created for this salad but any dressing would work if you’re in a pinch. Some options: creamy balsamic dressing, cilantro lime dressing or peanut dressing.
