    Crunchy Superfood Slaw Recipe

    Superfood Slaw

    I LOVE eating these types of superfood salads - they taste delicious, keep you full and are packed with nutrition. The keys to devouring food like this are to 1) use healthy ingredients to make a delicious dressing, and 2) pay attention to the texture of the rest of the ingredients to make it extra fun to eat.

    This salad is loaded with Vitamin C, beta-carotene, essential minerals, antioxidants, healthy fats, and protein. Enjoy!

    Crunchy Superfood Slaw
    Prep Time: 20 minutes
    Total Time: 20 minutes
    Serves 6-8

    Ingredients

    For the dressing:

    • 2 tbsp macadamia nut oil (or flaxseed oil)
    • 1 tbsp sesame oil (not the toasted kind)
    • 3 tablespoons raw honey
    • 2 tablespoons rice wine vinegar (unflavored/unsweetened)
    • Juice of 2 limes (about 1 ½ tablespoons)
    • 2 tablespoons almond butter or natural peanut butter
    • ½ tsp salt
    • A few dashes of hot sauce for heat (optional)

    For the salad:

    • 4 cups shredded cabbage
    • 2 carrots, shredded
    • 1 apple, peel on, cored and julienned
    • 1 bunch green onions (about 8), finely chopped
    • 1 handful cilantro, chopped
    • ½ cup sliced almonds
    • ⅓ cup hemp seeds

    Recipe:

    Whisk all dressing ingredients in the bottom of a large bowl. Add all salad ingredients and toss well to coat.

    Tips:

    • You'll get 4 cups from one small to medium head of cabbage; both red or green cabbage work great.
    • Use any type of apple, I prefer a red delicious or Fuji.
    • This salad will keep a day or two in the refrigerator, but it gets a little soggy the more it sits. Prepare all ingredients and dressing the day before if serving or taking to a party, just keep the salad and dressing separate until about 30 minutes before you serve it.

      bummer! This salad was exactly what I needed the other day. I tried to make something similar and it felt like it was missing a few ingredients. The cilantro would have helped tons! Thanks for posting 🙂
