Taken from:
Tiffany's

Description:
Roseate pork salad with a sweet zing~

Ingredients (serves four):
200 g lean pork meat, diced and cooked
1/2 C frozen mixed vegetables, steamed
1/2 melon gourd, cubed and steamed
1/2 C beansprouts, de-rooted and steamed
1/4 C Japanese cucumber, sliced
5 strawberries, sliced
1/2 C pickled beetroot cubes

1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 tbsp honey
1 tbsp apple vinegar
1 tsp dried oregano

1 tbsp flaxseeds
1 tbsp sesame seeds

Directions
1) Combine oil, honey, apple vinegar and oregano.
2) Toss the rest of the ingredients except the seeds together, and drizzle with the vinaigrette. Refrigerate for
3) Sprinkle with seeds before serving.

Remarks:
Literally everything that was leftover in the fridge was tossed into this salad. I like the rosy hue that was imparted by the beetroot albeit looking slightly on the unnatural side. Taste-wise, it was on the delectable side! Each ingredient was coated in a sweet tangy sauce in addition to its characteristic taste.

Toss with soba and here you have lunch:

Marinate for an hour or two in the fridge and you'll get really pretty rosy pink soba as the soba really soaked up the sauce! I had taken a photo of it but I accidentally destroyed it =(

Actually I do have many more good things to say about this recipe, but I guess I better proceed to study for my 2 tests on this coming Thurs!
