6 tbsp rice vinegar
1 tbsp sesame oil

DIRECTIONS
In a large mixing (w/ a lid), combine coleslaw mix, cilantro, green onions, and orange slices.

Pour the oil & vinegar dressing mixture over the coleslaw mixture. Toss well until the coleslaw mixture is well coated. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for about 6 hours. This will allow the flavors to marinate and fully combine.
Right before serving, toss the mixture well and garnish with sunflower kernels.
