Gado-gado

A healthy and nutritious modern take on an Indonesian classic.  The slaw ingredients will keep in an airtight container for a few days in the fridge, so you can prepare the salad components and then add the extras and dressing to make a salad for one or two and have enough left over to repeat in two or three days. Serves 2.
