Salad

  • 1 head radicchio, finely chopped
  • 2 medium heads romaine, finely chopped
  • 1 cup broccoli slaw
  • 1 cup crumbled cauliflower
  • 1/2 cup red onion, finely chopped
  • 1/2 cup sunflower seeds
  • 1/3 cup dried mango, finely chopped
  • 2 4-oz. cans albacore tuna in oil or water, drained and flaked

Dressing

  • 1/2 cup sweet red chili sauce
  • 1/2 cup olive oil
  • 1/3 cup rice wine vinegar
  • 1 Tbsp. lime juice
  • 1 Tbsp. honey
  • 2 tsp. freshly grated ginger
  • 1/2 tsp. kosher salt
  • 1/4 tsp. black pepper

Instructions

Salad

  • Add all salad ingredients to a large bowl. Toss with desired amount of dressing until well combined.

Dressing

  • Combine all dressing ingredients in a jar. Shake vigorously.

Notes

If you don't have any sunflower seeds on hand but have some nuts like pecans or almonds, you can just substitute.
And as mentioned above, if you're not a tuna fan, you can substitute with some cooked chicken or shrimp if you'd prefer.
You can find the broccoli slaw and cauliflower crumbs in the fruit and vegetable aisle at most markets.
