Main Ingredients- 1 medium apple
- 100g fresh cabbage
Zesty Dressing- 3 Tbsp olive oil
- 2 Tbsp lemon juice
- 1 Tbsp whole grain mustard
- 1 Tbsp honey
- Pinch of salt
- 3 Tbsp olive oil
- 2 Tbsp lemon juice
- 1 Tbsp whole grain mustard
- 1 Tbsp honey
- Pinch of salt
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, wash the cabbage thoroughly and thinly shred it. Since we’ll be eating the apple with its skin, wash it meticulously using baking soda, then thinly julienne it. This ensures you get to enjoy the apple’s crispness and its full nutritional benefits.
Step 2
Place the prepared shredded cabbage and apple into a large bowl. Now, let’s make the delicious dressing. In a separate small bowl, combine 3 tablespoons of olive oil, 2 tablespoons of fresh lemon juice, 1 tablespoon of flavorful whole grain mustard, 1 tablespoon of sweet honey, and a pinch of salt to your taste. Whisk these ingredients together until well combined. Pour the prepared dressing over the shredded vegetables and gently toss everything together, ensuring the dressing evenly coats all the ingredients.
Step 3
Finally, taste the salad and adjust the seasoning if needed. If you prefer it a bit sweeter or tangier, add more honey or lemon juice to your liking. Once you’ve achieved the perfect balance, your fresh and delicious cabbage and apple salad is ready to be enjoyed!
