This Japanese-style cabbage salad is comparable to what is served in Japanese restaurants. It's vegan, tastes great, and goes well with Japanese and American food instead of coleslaw.

½ large head cabbage, cored and shredded
1 bunch green onions, thinly sliced
1 cup almond slivers
¼ cup toasted sesame seeds
Dressing:
3 tablespoons sesame oil
3 tablespoons rice vinegar
1 tablespoon white sugar (Optional)
1 clove garlic, minced (Optional)

1 teaspoon salt
