Ingredients

Dressing

¼ cup rice vinegar
pinch red pepper flakes
2 cloves garlic - minced or pressed
2 tablespoons soy sauce or tamari use tamari for gluten free

1 teaspoon mustard
1 teaspoon grated ginger

Notes

This makes about 4-5 servings of a side salad, depending on how hungry you are. I like to pair this salad with salmon but it goes well with any protein.
