In a large mixing bowl, combine the broccoli slaw mix, red bell pepper, carrot, green onions, and cilantro.
In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, honey, grated ginger, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper to create the dressing.
Pour the dressing over the slaw mixture and toss well to evenly coat all the vegetables.
Add the toasted slivered almonds and sesame seeds to the salad. Gently toss again to combine.
Taste and adjust seasoning if needed by adding a pinch more salt or an extra splash of soy sauce or vinegar.
Let the slaw sit for 10-15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together, or serve immediately for maximum crunch.
Garnish with additional sesame seeds or chopped cilantro if desired before serving.
