    Mayo-Free Crunchy Cabbage Salad

    1
    By Ricki Heller on May 24, 2012 Salad

    Ricki Heller ~ This dairy-free, gluten-free, and vegan cabbage salad recipe is a long-time standard from my friend and colleague Caroline Dupont. Ever since I attended Caroline’s raw cooking classes back in nutrition school, I’ve loved this salad, a staple in our house over the warmer months.

    The lively mélange of colorful, fresh and crispy vegetables and fruit marries beautifully with the slightly sweet and tart dressing. Although I’m not a fan of fresh fennel, the ground fennel in this dressing adds just the perfect whisper of licorice to complement the juicy sweetness of the apples in this cabbage salad. Every mouthful offers up a different parade of colors, flavors and textures to treat your palate to some first-class, sparkly raw gustatory entertainment (and a whole rainbow of antioxidants and healthy fats to boot). And it’s ready in around 10 minutes–without heat or any real physical exertion (except for the chewing–of which there will be quite a bit, I wager).

      I did a search for organic, vegan cabbage salad because I still want to eat a lot of cruciferous foods but I’m completely burnt out on salads. So I will make this cabbage salad, which already has all the ingredients I put in regular salads (except I sweeten with xylitol and nothing else), only it will be different and I will love it.

      Thanks for this recipe!
