Cabbage Salad

Ingredients
2 cups thinly shredded red cabbage
2 cups shredded carrot
1/2 cup crushed roasted peanuts
1/4 cup Thai salad dressing (instead of 1/4 cup peanut oil)
Tabasco sauce
Lemon juice and salt to taste.

Notes:
From the original recipe we replaced 1/4 cup peanut oil with the Thai salad dressing and the tabasco sauce for the hot green chilli. The Thai salad dressing was rather sweet and I think the peanut oil would have worked better. We omitted 1/2 cup chopped cilantro and 1/2 tsp sugar.
