Oriental Black Beans

8 c thinly sliced napa cabbage, divided
2 15 oz cans black beans, drained
1 1/4 c chopped sweet red pepper
1 c fresh bean sprouts
1/4 c plus 2 Tbs sesame soy and ginger vinaigrette

Combine 2 c cabbage, beans, and 3 remaining ingredients in a bowl, tossing well.
Divide remaining cabbage evenly among 4 individual servings
Spoon bean mixture evenly over sliced cabbage.

Yield 4 servings
Serve w baked pita chips

The mild flavor and crisp texture of napa is especially good in this recipe. You can substitute angel hair slaw, which is shredded, prepackaged cabbage. It has a slightly stronger flavor.

Options:
1/2 c roasted peanuts
1 c edamame


We had this all tossed together with an Asian vinaigrette and it was amazing good!
