Instructions
Shred the green cabbage, red cabbage, and carrots. Thinly slice the red bell pepper and green onions. Add all the vegetables to a large mixing bowl.
Toast the slivered almonds and sesame seeds in a dry skillet over medium heat for 2-3 minutes, stirring frequently, until golden and fragrant. Set aside to cool slightly.
In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, honey, grated ginger, salt, and black pepper to create the dressing.
Pour the dressing over the vegetables in the mixing bowl. Toss everything together thoroughly to ensure the vegetables are evenly coated with the dressing.
Add the toasted slivered almonds and sesame seeds to the salad. Gently fold them in to distribute throughout the mixture.
Let the salad sit for 10-15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. Serve immediately or refrigerate for up to 1 day.
Optional: Garnish with additional sesame seeds or fresh cilantro before serving for an extra touch of freshness.
