I have been craving cabbage.  It's actually one of my favorite veggies.  This is not my usual Oriental Salad, but it has become a close second.  I used cabbage with no lettuce because that's just the way I wanted it.  This is just a guideline,  it's okay to change a recipe to suit your tastes. For instance,  I added green onions and cashews to the original recipe.  I also cut back on the sugar and increased the sesame oil, garlic powder and soy sauce.  Play around with this recipe.  You will enjoy the results.
