My favorite salad dressing lately is Newman’s Own Lite Low Fat Sesame Ginger Dressing. It’s low in calories (35 per 2 tablespoons), but doesn’t taste low-cal.

I was looking through my photos and I realized that I made this Asian Salad a few weeks ago and I never posted it. The recipe makes a huge bowl of salad.

If your ingredients are fresh, it will keep for a week in the fridge. Just add the chow mein noodles and dressing before serving.

Here’s the recipe:

• 3 carrots, shredded
• 2 red peppers, thinly sliced
• 1/2 cup cilantro leaves
• 1 head romaine, shredded
• 1 head Napa cabbage, shredded
• 15.5 ounce can chickpeas, drained and rinsed
• 1/2 cup chow mein noodles (look for the ones that don’t have trans fat)
• 1/2 cup Newman’s Own Lite Low Fat Sesame Ginger Dressing

1. Mix all vegetables and chickpeas in a huge bowl.
2. Before serving, add chow mein noodles and dressing.
