Perfect for a light summer dinner. You can serve with a protein to make it more substantial (grilled shrimp, chicken, pork, beef, even tofu). Tonight I'm serving it along side some pan seared fresh wild salmon filet.

Another beautiful recipe. I've made a similar salad to this before, but this one has multi-layers of elements, which is going to make it multi-yummy. :)

I made this for dinner last night and it was FANTASTIC! Was a bit worried about the 'heat' level but it was awesome, as was the flavour, crunch and colour! Will totally use this as my "Go To Asian Noodle Salad" from now on. Top shelf!
