Notes

For a well-balanced meal: Make sure to include an added plant protein. For a heartier meal with carbs, also add noodles or quinoa.
To save time: Use pre-shredded ingredients or use a food processor shredding disk to get the job done in practically seconds.
Allow it to marinate: We recommend preparing the dressing in advance to allow the flavors to meld. An hour is great, but overnight is even better.
