Cabbage is one of the most nutritional vegetables, and there are so many ways to make it into a yummy salad.

Ingredients

The Salad

• 1 Head of Cabbage
• 2 Red Carrots
• About 1/2 a cup of Cashews
• 1 Tangerine or Mandarin
• English Peas or Sugar Snap Peas
• Some Leaves of Red Frill
• Chopped Fresh Herbs (cilantro, mint, thyme, green onions)

The Dressing

• 1 Lime or Lemon
• 1/4 Cup of Cashews (soaked in hot water while you prepare everything)
• 4 Tbsp. of Avocado Oil
• 4 Tbsp. of Olive Oil
• 1 Tbsp. of Toasted Sesame Oil
• 1 Tbsp. Rice Vinegar
• 1/2 Cup of Chopped Cilantro
• 1 Tbsp. Fresh Grated Ginger
• 1 Jalapeño (or less if it's a spicier pepper, alternatively use some chili flakes to taste)

• 1 Tsp. Fresh Thyme (if available)

Instructions

The Salad

1. Cut the cabbage in half and then cut both slices in half again, to make quarters.
2. Shred the cabbage on the second setting of a mandoline, or slice thin with a knife.
3. Add the cabbage to a bowl, and drizzle some olive oil over the top. Then massage the cabbage to break it down.
4. Pour the dressing over the top of the cabbage and mix with tongs.
5. Take a small handful of cashews and toast them in a small pan, with a little cooking oil.
6. Shred carrots and add it to the cabbage.
7. Add sliced tangerines, fresh peas, sliced onions, and radishes.
8. I also love to add red frill to this whenI have it.

2. Chop the fresh herbs.
3. Blend all ingredients in a blender and add a little sea salt to taste.
