For the sauce I just mix the sauce ingredients together, using 1/4 cup "less sodium soy sauce", brown rice vinegar being that is what I had, added 2 cloves of minced garlic. For the salad ingredients I used a 12 ounce bag of bean sprouts, 1 pound noodles, twice the amount of snow peas, shrimp. This is refreshingly healthy good!
