  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup water

  • 1 8oz pkg shredded finely cabbage, regular or red

Sauce

  • ½ cup peanut butter
  • 3 TB brown sugar
  • 1.5 teaspoon ginger, powder
  • 3 TB rice vinegar

Instructions

  • Start by adding all your rice ingredients into the rice cooker and cook until done.
    Get a large bowl and throw all (except peanuts) your chopped salad ingredients into it.
    Mix all your sauce ingredients- then cook in the microwave for 30 seconds. Stir.
    Add your cooked rice, vegetables, and sauce together. I typically wait to add the peanuts before serving, but you can add them when you want. Stir until incorporated. I usually stick it in the fridge to blend the flavors and eat cold.
