  • 1 cup halved fresh snow pea pods (about 4 oz.)
  • 1/2 medium cucumber, quartered lengthwise, sliced
  • 1/2 medium red bell pepper, coarsely chopped

Tips from the Pillsbury Kitchens

  • tip 1
    To thinly slice Chinese cabbage, wash it and place on a cutting board. Beginning at the green end, use a sharp knife to cut across the head, producing thin shreds.
  • tip 2
    To give cucumber slices a decorative scalloped edge, start with a whole, unpeeled cucumber. Use the tines of a fork to make lengthwise ridges from end to end of cucumber. Rotate the cucumber and keep marking it until the entire peel is scored. Cut and slice scored cucumber.
  • tip 3
    Assemble salad ingredients in serving bowl; cover with a damp paper towel and plastic wrap. Place dressing in jar with tight-fitting lid. Refrigerate salad and dressing separately. Just before serving, toss salad with dressing.
