This salad sounded and looked good on the website but it was even better in real life. The flavor of the dressing was perfect with the fresh vegetables and it was a refreshing meal on a hot summer evening.
I grilled the shrimp the day before and then sauteed it in sesame oil and minced ginger. I also used Sriracha in the dressing instead of red pepper flakes.

This was delicious! I added diced mango because I had a nice ripe one. I also added a little minced ginger and garlic chili sauce to the dressing.

I love to bring this salad to work for lunch. It's a great way to use up leftover rice and tastes just like a spring roll.
