Napa Cabbage Salad with Lemon-Pistachio Vinaigrette

SUBMITTED BY: Always Cooking Up Something PHOTO BY: gapch1026

"Tired of only finding napa cabbage recipes that use Asian seasonings and fried ramen noodles? This salad has a fresh zippy flavor and makes a nice accompaniment to baked fish or roasted chicken. Note: Pistachio oil is pricey and can be hard to find, so feel free to substitute walnut, hazelnut, or olive oil."
