This coleslaw is the perfect side dish for summer. Seriously, I've made this three times already within the past month. The cabbage and carrots are nice and crunchy, and the ginger/vinegar/sesame oil dressing adds a great sweet and tangy flavor. It tastes great with some grilled chicken or pulled pork, or just with the addition of some diced avocado.
Best of all, there's no cooking involved! It also keeps well for a few days in the fridge.
