We really enjoyed it last night. I cheated big time, purchasing slaw mix at the store. dh is reducing carbs. This was a nice texture.http://allrecipes.com/recipe/247300/addictive-asian-beef-slaw-crack-slaw/

Barb, this looks really yummy...
I will be making this on Friday for dinner! (without the carrots of course--low carb no-no smileys/wink.gif I'm down 17# since I started, still on induction, inspired to remain here for a little while longer because I'm loving the pounds dripping off. Tell George good luck!
Not sure I told you, but after our luncheon in October, by the time I got back to the hotel I was not feeling well. Stayed in that night, next morning felt like I'd been hit by the proverbial Mack truck. Ended up at the CityClinic on 57th St. where they thought I had pneumonia. Thankfully it was just a bad sinus and bronchitis infection. Spent the rest of my time in the hotel before going out to Long Island where my Fairy God Mother fed me hot toddies and tucked me into bed.

Oh MY!!! what a bummer to be sick on your vaca. I am at a loss. We all seemed fine
at the restaurant. I am glad you did not have any issues on the plane ride home. I ruptured both ear drums coming home from London many years ago, still haunts me.
Congrats on the 17 lbs! I love your friend the fairy god mother!
Love how you plan ahead.... Count us in on your next NYC / NJ vaca.

I made this last evening. It was very good.
What a goofy name for this recipe though- it is not slaw and certainly not crack. But it was really good. I pretty much stuck to the recipe but used a whole head of purple cabbage as the store was out of white cabbage (!) and I did add more sesame oil and fresh lime juice toward the end of cooking. The volume of veggies seemed too big until it all went into the wok and cooked down to a reasonable volume. It was lovely to look at and even lovelier to eat. I couldn't stop. Am taking leftovers to work for lunch today.
Somebody else try it so it can go to T&T. It is worthy.

Great! I'm making it tomorrow night. Can't wait.
I was taught this salad by a gorgeous Thai woman. Key difference was she used
a New York strip steak and seared it over high heat, leaving the middle red. Then she sliced it super-thin on the bias and squeezed fresh limes over the cut meat. The acid finished off the cooking, like ceviche. Sprinkle with salt, then scrap it all over the cabbage slaw, meat, drippings, lime juice, all of it.
We eat the salad wrapped in iceberg lettuce that has been soaked to crisp or the inside cabbage leaves that have been zapped slightly to soften (stem also pared down).
It is such a happy meal in your mouth.

Bam! Wow this is good!
I made this for dinner (left out the carrots since they're not on my LC diet), but everything else exactly. Wow. Definitely a keeper. Quick, easy, and I had nearly everything already on hand.
