    Asian Slaw Ingredients

    • Tri-Color Coleslaw Mix
    • Asian Dressing
    • Peanuts

    I am all about easy meal solutions, and this Asian Slaw could not be easier. You only need three ingredients to make a yummy side salad that everyone will gobble up. Yup, you read right! All you need is tri-color cole slaw mix with cabbage and carrots, peanuts and Asian dressing.

    The supermarket shortcut in this dish is a bottle of Asian dressing. You can use any Asian dressing in this easy recipe, but my favorite is Ken's Lite Asian Sesame with ginger and soy. I really love the flavors. But honestly, any bottled Asian dressing will do.

    How to Make Asian Slaw

    Place cole slaw mix into a large bowl. Shake the dressing then pour the entire 16 oz bottle of Asian dressing into the bowl with the slaw mix.
