This lasts up to three days in the fridge, it just gets softer. If you can’t find a Chinese cabbage, a regular one does just great!

This is so flavorful! I love using orange and red tomatoes because they have different flavors and add such a variety of colors.

If you don’t want to spend time cutting the tomatoes in half, leave them whole and just cook them a bit longer. When you buy tomatoes, don’t put them in the fridge, it kills their flavor!

Leftover tips for tomorrow’s lunch:

Thinly slice any leftover chicken and add it right into the slaw! Will be delicious room temperature the next day!
What do you mean by putting a large baking dish on the fire? Do you mean a frying pan? Or to heat in the oven? Thanks!
It should be a dish that can both go on the fire and in the oven (like a Dutch oven)
