Serves 4
SALAD:
- 6 oz. rice vermicelli noodles
- 3 carrots, shredded
- 1 zucchini, shredded
- 5 cups napa cabbage, shredded
- rotisserie chicken, shredded
- 2 eggs, lightly mixed with a fork (optional)
- fresh mint leaves, chopped
- fresh basil, chopped
Soak rice noodles in a bowl of tepid water for 10 minutes at room temperature. Meanwhile, bring a pot of water to boil. Drain noodles and add to boiling water, cooking only for a minute or 2. Do not over cook or they will be mushy. Drain and refresh in cold water to stop the cooking. Set aside. If adding eggs, heat 1 T. oil in a small skillet. Add eggs and a pinch of salt and cook until set. Flip over and cook until lightly browned. Turn onto a cutting board. Allow to cool. Cut in half widthwise, then cut into strips.
Into a large serving bowl, layer the carrots, zucchini, cabbage, chicken, noodles, eggs and herbs, adding some of the ingredients to each layer. Make dressing.

- Juice of 2 fresh limes, about 1/3 cup

Add dressing ingredients to a jar or bowl. Mix well until combined. Add to salad and toss gently. Serve at room temperature or chilled.
