We’re pairing this crisp and refreshing Asian Sesame salad—chock full of kale, three kinds of cabbage, carrots, cashews, and sesame sticks—with pre-cooked chicken for a satisfying dish that’s ready in minutes. To take it to the next level, everything is tossed in a sweet sesame dressing. Lunchtime just got a whole lot easier (and a lot more delicious).

Produced in a facility that processes eggs, milk, fish, peanuts, sesame, shellfish, soy, tree nuts, and wheat.

Review summary

Updated on Sep 2026
  • Flavor: The sesame dressing and crunchy toppings make this salad genuinely tasty; opinions on the pre-cooked chicken are split — some loved it, others found it bland or rubbery.
  • Ease of prep: This is about as quick as it gets — a ready-in-minutes lunch that several reviewers packed for work all week.
  • Suggestions: Add extra dressing if you like a well-coated salad, as many felt one packet wasn't quite enough. A few reviewers tossed in mandarin oranges, tomatoes, or mushrooms for extra freshness and variety.
  • Leftovers: The salad wilts by day two, so dress only what you plan to eat and store the rest undressed for better next-day lunches.

The salad was delicious but the cooked chicken was not cooked. It was tough and not good.

It's an excellent salad, the dressing feels a bit lacking when you add 2 chicken breast's.

I'm not usually a salad person, but I am a Chinese take out person. And when I smelled the salad it smelled just like Chinese take out yet somehow tasted even better.
