Coleslaw has always repulsed me. Soggy cabbage, saturated with mayo was not my idea of a yummy dish and I haven’t even tried a bite since I was a little kid. The colors of the dish could be really pretty though, so this week when I realized I had a head of cabbage taking a long residency in our fridge (I swear, they last for like a month though) I decided to make my own raw version of this popular side dish. The end result is light and delicious, and filling enough to make a full meal of
1 head of green cabbage, sliced into thin strips
1 radicchio, sliced into thin strips
3 carrots, spiralized or julienned
1 cup green onions, chopped
1/2 cup sesame seeds
1/3 cup fresh parsley, chopped
DRESSING
1/2 cup cashews, soaked for 2 hours
1/2 cup sesame seeds
1/4 cup orange juice
2 tbsp lemon juice
2 tbsp sesame oil
1/2 tsp sea salt
- Toss all salad ingredients together
- In a blender, blend together dressing ingredients
- Pour over salad and mix well
