Sally’s Notes
I think I’ve mentioned that I try to go meat free at lest once a week and this is a good recipe to try. You can eat it warm or cold. I only had white sesame seeds which was fine. Also I had some extra snap peas so I sliced them and added them to the salad. I did not use as much honey as the recipe called for, I don’t like it too sweet. I did add some chili oil for spice.
