I learned in elementary school that it's good for your health if you try to eat beans, sesame seeds, seaweed, vegetables, fish, mushrooms and potatoes or other starch root vegetables every day. So, I tried making a salad that uses all of those ingredients.

Make the crispy potatoes just before serving. I add the sesame seeds to the dressing, but you can sprinkle them on top of the salad instead. Use whatever vegetables you like! Add any other ingredients in addition too. For 4 servings. Recipe by Nanagukun
