Japanese dressing - I personally love the Japanese dressing from the Rosendale Café and they have it bottled for purchase. http://rosendalecafe.com/dressing.php
This is what I use on this salad. If you'd like to make your own dressing, here's a recipe I found online - let me know how it is (it sounds great!):
1/3 cup rice vinegar
2 ½ tablespoons of tamari or soy sauce
¼ cup honey
1 ½ tablespoons grated fresh ginger
1 clove garlic
1-2 tablespoons tasted sesame oil
½ cup olive oil
1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds
Mix all of the ingredients together with the exception of the ½ cup of oil.
Stir the ingredients with a whisk and slowly add the oil.
The dressing will separate - just shake it up before using.
Salad
1 bunch asparagus
1 box organic salad greens
handful of cilantro, finely chopped
1-inch piece of fresh ginger, peeled and grated
½ a container of grape tomatoes, sliced in half
½ a cucumber, peeled and cubed into bite-sized pieces
handful of sugarsnap peas, cut into bite-sized pieces
1 package baked tofu, cubed (my favorite is from Fresh Tofu Company - you can find it at the High Falls Food Co-op)
1 avocado, cut into bite-sized chunks
1 carrot, peeled and grated
3 scallions, chopped
2 tablespoons sunflower seeds, toasted
Steam asparagus until tender-crunchy. Run them under cool water and pat dry. Then slice into 1-inch pieces and set aside.
Fill your favorite large salad bowl with salad greens.
Top with cilantro and ginger.
Top with tomatoes, cukes, snap peas, asparagus, tofu, and avocado.
Add carrots, scallions, and sunflower seeds.
Add desired amount of dressing.
Deeee-lish!
