Asian slaw is tangy and delicious and perfect served with pulled pork, on top of grilled sausage, or all by itself. Come on in and get the recipe for this tasty side dish.
Nothing says summer more than cool salads made up of crisp veggies; and sure, a little bacon never hurt anyone! This is the perfect salad to bring to a summer barbeque or potluck, and even better for at home dinners when all you want is to be outside grilling steaks. It’s the perfect side dish to grilled meats and fish, as well as perfect sitting on top of a juicy burger. When OXO sent me their Handheld Mandoline to review, I knew I wanted to create a dish that not only was a perfect showcase of the tool, but would be perfect for the season as well. And what better timing was the #SliceItUp Recipe Contest, which this recipe is being entered in so wish me luck!
The OXO Handheld Mandoline, honestly has become my go to tool lately. Even for snack time I thinly slice my fruit just for fun (and it looks pretty!) Fruit Carpaccio anyone? It’s dishwasher safe, which I love and the blade is super sharp, but here are the official feature from the OXO website.

- Clear surface shows slices below
- Slice on cutting board or plate or hook over a bowl
