Her philosophy? Tanya believes you should never sacrifice taste, even when you're eating healthy foods.

Hot dogs and hamburgers typically take center stage at BBQs, but we all know that no BBQ would be complete without the side dishes. However, these seemingly innocent dishes are doing more damage to your waistline than you may realize. One cup of coleslaw weighs in at 370 calories and 20 grams of fat!

I've taken out the guilt, but not the flavor by creating this Asian Slaw Salad. This salad makes a great side to tuna or salmon burgers or can stand alone as an entree when topped with grilled chicken. Unlike most salad greens, cabbage stays crisp even with the dressing. This Asian Slaw Salad travels well so it's not only perfect for a BBQ, it can also be packed for a picnic or brown-bagged for lunch at the office.

Ingredients:

Salad:

4 cups shredded napa cabbage

1/2 cup scallion, finely slice

1/2 cup carrots, shredded

1/2 cup water chestnuts, diced

Dressing:

2 Tbl. low sodium soy sauce

2 tsp. toasted sesame oil

3 Tbl. rice wine vinegar

1/2 tsp. minced fresh ginger

1/2 tsp. sugar (or Splenda)

Directions:

1. Place salad ingredients in a large bowl.

2. In a separate small bowl, whisk together dressing ingredients.

3. Pour dressing over salad and toss well to coat. Chill until ready to serve.
