Amazing thanks chef ????????????
Thank you.
Loved this recipe. Thank you for sharing ????
I used tahini instead of peanut butter the dressing turn out to be way to thick what cam I used to thin it out with out losing the taste?
I will appreciate if you do a video on chicken corn soup, please.
Beth, this is the exact type of lunch recipe I was looking for: affordable, quick, easy to assemble and tasty. I'm looking forward to enjoying for lunch all week long!
Cabbage no need to cook ?
Beth, absolutely loving your channel. I try to cook as healthy as possible and as inventive as i can so my bf doesnt think he's being denied anything. We even started our own howegrown veggies and fruits next to the lovely eggs from our chickens. And your channel is super for giving me some new inspiration, big thumbs up :)
There is no chicken salad in China. How did you build this Chinese chicken salad?
I really don't like peanut butter. Is there anything else I could use instead of it
It must be lunch time since I'm watching all these videos and salivating. LOL! Great healthy recipe, Beth.
That looks delicious!
Can it be corn oil instead ?

Sigh
So busy
Saved my life. It always happen to me in the morning before school, run out of time and end up eating in school canteen where they normally have unhealthy food. Thank you for the great idea 🙂
Great recipe! But do you not wash your veggies?
Just tried it this week. Am looooving it! When I first started adding the vinegar though I was like 'is this gonna turn out OK?' The smells is just so strong and I was never fond of the taste before either. The peanut butter taste is so good too!
What was you job ?
This recipe involves a LOT of chopping! But its totally worth it. I made a huge batch of this to divide up and take to school for lunches. I'm a college student, and I find its difficult to eat healthy foods while rushing around between classes. This is a great solution! Thanks Beth!
Oh and great great recipe! Thank you
