  3. Then, slice green cabbage into long thin strips. Add cabbage to salad bowl.
  4. Add toasted slivered almonds to salad bowl.
  5. Then, make dressing. Combine all dressing ingredients in a small bowl. Stir to combine.

Notes

  • Toasting the almonds takes just 3 to 5 minutes and adds a ton of flavor!  Feel free to use whole almonds or another nut or seed if desired.
  • Massaging the kale is important.  Kale can be a little stiff and rigid until massaged.  Simply massage kale with your hands until it has a softer texture.
  • Red cabbage can be substituted for green cabbage.
  • Slice cabbage into long thin strips.
  • Add meat, protein, dried cranberries, or any other desired toppings!
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
  • If possible, store salad and dressing separately.  Then dress salad as needed.
  • Nutrition facts include full salad dressing.
