Juli Tsuchiya-Waldron of Tokyo, Japan, writes: "I was born in California but moved to Tokyo with my family when I was 6 years old. Now I'm 19, and have started a small craft shop where I sell my handmade place mats and coasters. Cooking is my other creative outlet.

To turn this salad into a main course, add cooked shrimp and more vegetables, such as slivered carrots and red cabbage.
