This was delicious. I think this would also be good with extra marinade to cook with some rice and make a stir-fry.

    Oh yum. Rice vinegar has become my new friend. I'm finding lots of things I love it in, and this is no exception. The only thing I did differently was to reduce the oil to 1 teaspoon. It was still really good. I think this would be a great use of the leftover veggies on a raw vegetable tray. Thanks Tish.

    Tish, this was a great salad. Actually, I served it as a side dish, but everyone loved it, including me, and I dont like cooked carrots. It was easy to put together and store in the refrigerator until dinner. I let it set at room temperature for about an hour before serving. They colors were vivid, and just beautiful. Thanks for posting. I will make this again....... going into my T&T book.

    Tish, this salad is outstanding!! Only thing I changed was to cut back on the ginger a wee-bit (personal taste), and added some ground black pepper to the dressing. Next time, I will be sure to double this!! Thank you! ~Manda UPDATE: Since I have found this recipe, I have made it a zillion times, trying new combos of veggies and they were all wonderful (cauliflower, onion, green/red pepper, etc.) I just made this yesterday, and mixed in some cooked and cooled brown rice, and it was awesome!! Also, if there is leftover marinade in the bottom of the bowl, don't toss it!! It makes a wonderful salad dressing for drizzling over fresh greens. Oh, I just LOOVE this stuff!! Thank you again, Tish ~Manda
