1 -2 teaspoon lemon juice
1/4 cup peanuts, chopped
cilantro, chopped (optional)

In a medium to large sized bowl toss cabbage, carrots, scallions, snow peas (if using). Add cooled noodles (cool, room temp or slightly warmer fine too). Toss with dressing.
To serve, top with peanuts and cilantro. Season to taste.
